Butterflies spread colours left and right amidst the stark barren branches of trees stripped bare. A last reminder of good things before Winter sets in, Butterflies here are a kind of Ink-Blot psycho-test for the beholder.
An unusual riot of colours, those butterflies
Remnants of spring and seasons two
Oh, how the good Time flies
Summer and rains have left too.
As winter sets in, edging out autumn
Withering leaves and branches stark
Reveal dazzling butterflies rather solemn
Haunting last flowers on skeletons dark.
Bright yellow dots and optical black spots
From Giant Monarchs to orange sparklers
Leopard butterflies scatter picture blots
An Ink-Blot Psycho-Test with colour sprinklers!
