Dance of the Butterflies

aerial acrobats flutter high

into the bright blue sky

doing the dance of the butterfly

multi-colored wings with eyes

the beauty of the butterflies

they put on a stunning display

every day

a living bouquet

a riot of colors that please the eye

watching them fly

their presence does beautify

the flowers they fortify

butterflies
