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
