Viceroy butterfly, remarkable
dead ringer for the Monarch
eggs overwinter, a rolled-up leaf
displaying their mother's motif
Form: Verse

Never the Moribund Monarch...

To capture beauty,
is to go to sleep with black,
red, and gold powder
from butterfly wings aloft
on your mind... not on your hands~

Floating on the winds
 of summer, he glides with ease
towards  the  flowers;
selecting one he fancies,
 monarch sits upon his throne

Tiny world

Wood full of eternal tiny souls,
Some soar high, some dwell in a hole.
Predators play their gray role,
Whether bitter monarch or sweet boal.

Orange and Black wings
Spreaded by the elegant

Seen in an afternoon walk
After a showery day

Tyrant Monarch

they’re we 
              dearth can't touch them
                                              they’re in transmutation!

Premium Member Delighta Ignores Her Muses Away

Delighta did not know whose instructions to take.
Hummingbird in her left ear or monarch in her right?
She picked up a book of faerie spells and ignored them away.

Premium Member I Wish I Could Be Human

I wish I could be human
the monarch felt this thought between tulips
she awoke in the morning queenly in full dress
everyone wanted rules
all she wanted was nectar

The Filtering of the Light

The beautiful
monarch butterfly
reminds me of a stained glass 
depiction of Jesus
high above me
on a cathedral wall
made blurry by the height
and my imagination.

Premium Member Monarch Butterfly

Black trimmed orange winging,

                                        float alighting on milkweed.

                                        A hushed waltz on blooms.
