Analysis of Butterflies
Watch them flutter from spot to spot,
Focus the camera and get a shot,
Those delicate wings of orange and black,
Carrying each Monarch both forward and back.
Observe their progress in a balmy breeze,
How they glide over flowers and trees,
Up and down with no straight line,
What a masterpiece in mechanics and design.
Against the wind they hover and turn,
From these creatures there's much to learn,
These frail bodies are a fascinating sight,
In any garden they are a delight.
