Michael Tor Poet Rhyme

Majestic Colors Painted On Butterfly Wings

They float effortlessly
zigzagging,and fluttering,
so care free.

  Watching them enjoying
the savory nectars, that
ripened flowers share and
release. 

 A pallet of majestic colors
are lavishly worn.

 Orange, and blues,
lavender, and yellows 
are vividly shown.

  So many designs and
colors are painted on their
majestic beautiful
canvassed wings.

  Inspiring the great
painters to paint in the
early spring.

 They start out as a
larvae, who would have
thought?

  They would metamorphise,
into, masterpieces and leave
us completely in awe!
