Butterfly On a Rock

In my garden sits a red granite rock
set with flecks of quartz, mica, and feldspar.
Juxtaposed with emerald green shamrock
and flowers of yellow and cinnabar.
Butterflies are oft attached to its salts,
and once, I spied an indigo-blue one.
A masterpiece Mother Nature exalts
this living sapphire glistened in the sun.
With gold filigree fit to adorn kings,
it was poised on that rock, flexing its wings.
