Kaleidoscopic

"A collection of butterflies is a kaleidoscope, to watch them flutter together is kaleidoscopic." 

blue painted lady's
flutter cobalt wispy wings ~
parading nectar

milkweed butterflies
vibrant in orange and black~
fanciful tigers

swaying swallowtails
fluttering along green stems ~
delicate giants
