Butterflies are fascinating and fragile insects. They are one of the most beautiful creatures on earth. It always amazes me that they can live, propagate, and migrate far distances. Their wings are so thin you can almost see right through them, yet they have such an artistic design one cannot deny the handiwork of our creator. As I watch these amazing creatures I am in awe of everything about them.
Tiny creatures
Flitting from flower to flower
Seemingly oblivious
To the world around
Carried about
On tissue thin wings
Masterpieces of design
Painted in vivid colors
Beyond art
Migrating on the wind
Programmed GPS
Chrysalises bursting open
Reincarnated
Ephemeral beauty
For us to enjoy
