Butterfly Affair

Butterflies on our lemon tree, Flirting with its leaves, flitting free, Brushing it here, kissing it there, What a cute romantic affair! A "kaleidoscope" I foresee!
{A group of butterflies is also known as a "kaleidoscope"}

As a poem, I thought L1-5 was very sweet... and L6 might have worked better as the title.
