See?
I'm here,
having split
my emerald,
gilded chrysalis -
as I emerge,
a monarch.
I'm here.
See!
free to ride the winds
just beautiful where it goes~

my spirit flies

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 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.
Black trimmed orange winging,
float alighting on milkweed.
A hushed waltz on blooms.
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
we
heard
the
wings of
the
monarch butterfly
beating together
as
she approached
the
ash pink rose
to
taste
the
nectar of the gods

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
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
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
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
Monarch butterfly
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.
monarch butterfly
lands atop a crimson rose...
captivating sight

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
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.
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.
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
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!
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!

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.

For Gail's "Butterfly's Trail of Kisses" contest
a lonely melancholic caterpillar
wrapped up in its tiny little universe
with its teeny caterpillar dreams
single-mindedly oblivious
to its own destiny
unaware what journey lies ahead
clueless of its fate to soon take flight
on emancipated wings
of a regal monarch butterfly

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 -
