Ode To The Grand Designer Of The Beautiful Butterfly
Genius Of Design – She’s Come A Long Way From The Hairy Caterpillar
Showing Her Beauty – An Artistic, Magnificent Floating Floatilla
Her Delicate Wings Like Tissue Paper Sails – Whisper A Gentle Flutter
Her Engineered Swallow Tail –Yellow, Silky Soft As Creamy Butter
There’s Natures Painted Lady – A Picture Poetry Marvel She Be
A Natural Wonder – Evolution Or God’s Gift? Matters Not To Me
She Spans Her Wings, Sunbathes, Pirouette Flutters Upon That Flower
I Could Watch Her For Every Minute Of Times Winged Chariot’s Hour
She Seeks Out Nature’s Colour, Drinks In The Heady Nectar Perfume
Fliting, Bobbing, Dancing, Gliding From Glorious Bloom-To-Bloom
Then Nature’s Super Fragrance Scent Heavy- Triggers A Booming Sneeze
And Off She Flutters Skipping, Weaving, Floating Upon The Summer Breeze
I Follow Her With Sun Dazzled Squinting Eye’s Across The Golden Hay
Thrilled To See Her Delicate Beauty -She Really Has Brightened Up My Day
She Is A Queen – A Majestic Evolutionary Sovereign For My Eyes To Behold
A Stunning Example Of Nature’s Evolutionary Process – So I Am Tutor Told
Who Made Her ? Who Knows ? I Hope To Meet Her Maker – When I’m Wise And Old
