A Western Tiger Swallowtail Butterfly came for a visit recently.
I know it is August but "august" also means "marked by majestic dignity or grandeur"; thus my august company featured here!
Butterfly
Flutter by,
Butterfly,
Floating flower
in the sky.
Kiss me with your
Petal wings—
Whisper secrets,
Tell of spring.

The Swallowtail is about 4 inches across and is one of the prettiest pollinators in my garden.
An Irish Blessing
May the wings of the butterfly kiss the sun.
And find your shoulder to light on.
To bring you luck, happiness and riches.
Today, tomorrow and beyond.
On the Wings of Angels
may the spirit of those that we mourn today be remembered
and may this be the start of healing for all.
Butterfly In The Wind Poem
A child is……..
A butterfly in the wind,
Some can fly higher than others;
but each one flies the best it can.
Why compare one against the other?
Each one is different!
Each one is special!
Each one is beautiful!
