Butterflies

The heart of nature; butterflies.
As they go about their daily life,
they flap their wings. Flirt outrageously.
Flitter and flutter by.

Flaming colours of red,
blue-violet; orange; yellow.
Incandescent colours,
mingle with the sun.

Bewildering. Bewitching.
Beguiling. Beautiful.
Elegant. Enthralling.
Exquisite. Engaging.

Butterflies are all of these
and so much more.
They share with us their stories.
Foretell of an emerging time.

Climate change is happening.
The impact inevitable.
If we don’t stop destroying their habitats.
If we don’t stop destroying their homes.
