Orange and Black wings
Spreaded by the elegant
Monarch butterfly 
Seen in an afternoon walk
After a showery day

The most beautiful of colors vibrant and bright; Monarch butterfly… Bouncing through the pear tree leaves; a graceful, flying palette.

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.

Premium Member The Faerie Girl

she leans flexibly
as a monarch butterfly or luna moth leans
standing against a backdrop of rainbow sun
a faerie such as the world has never seen
but immediately loves

The Pink Ash Rose

we
heard
the
wings of 
the 
monarch butterfly
beating together
as
she approached
the
ash pink rose
to
taste
the
nectar of the gods 
click-clack
clickety-clack

Premium Member Who Is Like Unto Thee -- O, Djt

He flutters and flits from thing to thing
  A monarch butterfly, with an ADHD wing
Like a bird he tweets, but cannot sing...
  He's a buzzing bee --
                  -- no pollination, all sting

Premium Member The Perfect Day

If there was ever a perfect day it is this day
Blue sky, monarch butterfly, twin cardinals,
sunshine, gentle breeze, slightly singing wind chimes,
comfy cat, happy dog, motorcycle sounds, rooster crows

The Strenght of Her Wings

Through this patch of light,
The monarch butterfly
Holds on tight,
To this single 
Blade of prairie grass,
Using the strength of
Her royal wings
Now, resting 
Between this 
Borderline of
War and peace

Premium Member Monarch Butterfly

Monarch butterfly
Fluttering with grace and ease
Nature's beauty shines

Wings of orange and black
Guiding them on their journey
Through sky and through fields

Majestic and free
Symbol of transformation

Premium Member What Do We Call Her

I think she is the Snail Faerie one of the munchkins said.
I call her Owl faerie said another, this discussion well led.
Why don’t you just ask her? A monarch butterfly suggested.
I think that is a great idea! Said a glow worm who was rested.

         lands atop a crimson rose...

Premium Member If I Were Queen

If I were queen I would have to decide
Queen of sugar? Queen of salt?
Queen of tigers or a chocolate malt?
Queen of laughter? Queen of light?
Being queen is out of sight
Queen of unicorns? Faeries? Monarch butterfly?
I must confess being queen is difficult
It takes so much thought, I cannot lie

In Awe

I see on the winds of change 
Something high a above
floating in the sky.
A monarch butterfly
in brilliant array
heading away.

I see high above
a flock upon the breeze.
They gray and white
heading to a lake.
They soar so freely
and gracefully
so high above.
Wanting some sunshine 
to raise their young one.

Premium Member A Monarch Butterfly

a pupa escapes its chrysalis. ~ a Monarch unfolds crumpled wings. a caterpillar morphs into a butterfly ~ metamorphosis Dual pairs of brilliant orange-red wings with black veins and white spots crown them kings. And appearing both poised and regal; to bring harm to one is illegal.

Premium Member Dog Days

Sunlight in a blue sky
Dapples in and out of cottony grey clouds
Warming then soothing in turn
Two retiring humans under a tree
Amid a hundred shades of green
As a large yellow monarch
The king of insects
Glides and flutters by
With a sense of purpose and delicate grace
In perfect juxtapose.

An Orange and Black Moment

An Orange and Black Moment I see fluttering shadows on the birdbath; I see you seeing me. We study each other – you are mesmerized; For the beauty that is me. One I am, the first this summer My orange and black wings I exercise. I see your admiration and love; I am a Monarch butterfly!

Premium Member Zen Butterfly





     The butterfly pauses on a sunny
     rock.
     Warmed by God's breath and touch.

     Then in winged ecstasy, begins his day
     Exquisitely, in monarch butterfly way.

      Just....to be sailing is his glory.
      He needs no reviews....as...
      Perfection is his repository!

Premium Member Monarch Butterfly

When I'm lying wrapped in sunshine, discreet I've tried to be. Eager to see your black trim and golden flickering wings. My heart tries to keep a slow steady beat each time I've tried to reach and touch your wings.

golden daffodils
in silence butterfly flit
indulge sweet nectar

A monarch butterfly in flight looks so beautiful Unfortunately, there lives are ephemeral. For a short time, they are grounded as a larva. The caterpillar transforms inside its pupa. Bursting from the cocoon, they spread their wings. Few thing found in nature are like these things. Robert Pettit 4-4-12 For Gail's "Butterfly's Trail of Kisses" contest

Monarch butterfly

Beloved monarch or milkweed butterfly,                            Your migration may mystify,                                                    Do you migrate from Australia or America?,                     How do you ascertained the area?,                                     Your journey holds spiritual significance,                                It serves as a symbol of existence.

Premium Member Image In My Mind

I heard a monarch butterfly was floating on a leaf in a puddle
I thought of how beautiful that must have been to see!
And the light sailing on a leaf like that, feeling so free!
Some days, obligations and things pile up, freedom seems hard to find
But I will always seek it out, just like the butterfly resting for a while
	       - I will keep this image in my mind  -

Premium Member If I came back as a creature

If I came back as a creature, I hope it might be a monarch butterfly.
Or a lima bean colored luna moth or a female deer or a green elf.
I do not want to come back as a baby goat.

What about a penguin? Would you like to be a penguin?
Maybe an empire penguin or a striped pig.

What about a unicorn? Would you be a unicorn?
Maybe but she would have to be purple and have a pink feathered boa.

Premium Member Spring Seen From My Porch

watering can full of fresh spring water
multicolored chickadee with a pretty song
spider keeping out of reach 
bright yellow daffodils with ruffled necks 
a fluffy eager bunny with the fluffiest tail
gorgeous purple and white African violets 
polka dotted ribbons around gardening pots
a simple monarch butterfly with her eye on the prize 
snores of a happy bumble bee
spring is around the corner
