I have never seen a racoon, but only butterflies.

With elegance, KIM, you crafted a haiku that captures the beauty of a yellow butterfly with its striking wings in the sunlight, juxtaposed against the sad image of a flattened raccoon. Well done

My wife Judy loves butterflies. When she sees one she always thinks it is her late mom visiting. The Monarch species hope I spelled it right...

This was a strange sighting. Butterfly on top of what was left of raccoon. Strange indeed!
