Nature's Butterflies-

Springs to Summer callings In a year I am only here, to flutter in flight Rhopalocera four life stages Egg, Larva Caterpillar pupa Chrysalis I am flying, fluttering side to side In differences heights Floating in air, sometime suspended rare Feelings of detachments, change is afoot Painted lady not a prostitute Cabbage White not a garden vegetable Old world Swallowtail not a fish Be it my fondest wish Insect macro lepidopteran brightly colored wings Conspicuous fluttering flight Different shades of orange, yellows, blues greens and whites Flight of the bumble bee not Fly high fluttering Butterfly Fly high, change afoot what’s already changed In occurred waking life
