Lazily floating
on warm, dry air
soft sun-rays coating
a beautiful pair
of golden butterflies
that alight on the petals
of a crimson hibiscus
whose slender sepals
support stamens more robust
sticky with food in disguise.
The golden pair
sup their fill
in the shimmering air
of a sunny day so still
their lift-off is a surprise.
Onwards they dance
a delicate meander
and land by chance
on white coriander
drowsy golden butterflies.
