Beautiful Butterfly Wings
Butterflies taking to the air
turns into a joyous affair.
It means Spring is here at long last,
and the wildflowers are in bloom.
Weaving beauty on Nature's loom,
Spring's fragrant flowers flabbergast.
As sunlight splashes on the leaves
atop the canopies of trees,
green gives an emerald contrast
to cloudless cerulean skies.
For when Winter says its goodbyes,
Spring's arrival is unsurpassed.
Butterflies taking to the air,
spread such happiness everywhere.
Salmon swim up fast-flowing streams,
and wild roses waft sweet perfume.
Nectar flows for bees to consume
as a splendiferous sun beams.
And songbirds start twittering tunes,
whiling away warm afternoons.
And relieved of Winter's extremes;
children gather outdoors to play,
welcoming each gorgeous spring day,
there is nothing better, it seems.
Chrysalides are magic things;
wherein caterpillars swap legs
for beautiful butterfly wings.
