Divine tiger swallowtail butterfly. Oh, look what a fragile beauty it is! Alighted on orange honeysuckle Under a bright sunshine in the meadow. Light and soft like a feather in the wind. 'Tis a captivating wonder in flight. Fluttering on from daisy to daisy. Dazzlingly arresting beyond compare In its full splendor; how ethereal! In my dream I once chased this butterfly. Flitting about my colorful garden, 'Twas then left in complete ruins; trampled.
