Float like a butterfly

Having a grandfather who was a professional boxer,
and growing up watching Mohammed Ali,
today is a little sad.
I recall him carrying the Olympic torch
and having tears in my eyes as he stood there,
shaking with Parkinson's,
but doing what he came to do.

His catch phrase is as powerful today as ever.

Float like a butterfly.
Sting like a bee.

I know what it means to me.
What does it conjure up for you?
