winter

frost-kissed flakes flutter
like butterflies in crisp air
scattering pearl mists

The whole imagery is soothing, beautiful and tranquillizing. Love the comparison "like butterflies in crisp air".

Your art is amazing, dear Ink. Your butterfly picture and word choice are charming. You inspire a world where frost-coated flakes dance like silver butterflies in the winter breeze. Your ability to succinctly inspire vivid and lyrical pictures shows your artistic soul as you skillfully paint these images in our imaginations. BOL with the contest
