Butterflies

They go fluttering, One blossom to another; Rapacious beauties, seizing, sucking, sweet honey. A dozen plump butterflies. In lavish colors, a dozen plump butterflies sneaked into my heart. As they dance around flowers, wonder when you planted them?

Thanks dear Jan :) I see butterflies associated with beauty and something positive. I am sure we all experience butterflies fluttering in our hearts. I just garbed the feeling in poetry.
