Poetic Form: Crown of Sonnets: Couplet Inspired: 2024 January 09 Image: Peacock Butterfly by UK Butterflies
Assures their breed a place among unknowns, lest Europe and Asia part of their realms. Peacock Butterfly, hues-full Inachis, their uppermost topsides reveal truth bids, yet undersides are black-like camouflage, predators amiss, perplexed by mirage, afears further by fake four eyes on wings, and hissing sounds. The flower's nectar brings life spans. They're killed whilst hibernating by wood mice, and birds like Tit birds when they fly. Folklore's namesake, Hera's Priestess Io, eyed by Zeus, held by Hera as a cow. A year's crawl and sleep, another takes flight, climbing ivy draws and flowers, delight.
