Spring has been trying to come to our area since sometimes in December..A few warm days would bring forth grass turning spring-green, a plant or tree doning some blooms..Wildflowers and weeds have bloomed off and on for three months..It is an unseaonablely warm winter which happens every so many years..I have seen butterflies now for over a week which would make them to have come out in February...I was sadden today when one flew into my car..

Sara, at Callaway Gardens I saw some incredibly beautiful blue butterflies, unlike any I'd seen in Florida. Are these native to Georgia? Your poem is delightful, but I did feel sad thinking about the blue remnants on the car. They are such fragile creatures. Thank you for introducing me to a new form! Love, Carolyn

I love butterflies and my favorite color is blue. This is so sad. I'm sorry you had to experience that. I hate hitting any living thing with my car or when they fly into me. :( Rhonda

Aww that is so sad Sara! Yes, the butterflies come out to taste the new blooms that have come out due to the warm weather! It's bad that the weather still fluctuates and causing the butterflies to come out and possibly die...not via a car! Your Haiku is beautiful and full of life....until the end with the car of course! I really enjoyed your write that I have read this evening! Great Work!!
