Forest Butterflies

roaming colours

paint the woods

pencil feathers

ringlets echo

one after one

each flap

hues of sunlight

touch up shades

soft plumes

little hiccups

with each take off

leaves quake

wild flowers

a frisson of pleasure

swamps in

petals unfurl

a sigh undone and

sepals swell

tender sips

with rooted focus

bees detour

minds untie

as each glides by

a masterpiece
