What a Flutter !!!

 John J. Donovan Reservation, Hamilton, Massachusetts

Meadows are in bloom and motion.

 Colors of the petals mingle with the colors of the wings. 

  And the wind sways around.


   Among grasses. 

  

  That bird with a seed does not look to be in a hurry.

  

  While Monarchs flutter. 

      

  From flower to flower...


Donovan: ... meadows...

Donovan: ... where the wings mingle with the petals...

Donovan: ... in bloom...

Donovan: ... and the motion becomes a part of the story...

Donovan: ... with the wind swaying among grasses...

Donovan: ... that bird does not look to be in a hurry...

Donovan: ... Milkweed stands proudly...

Donovan: ... for Monarchs...

Donovan: ... gliding...

Donovan: ... from flower to flower...

Donovan: ... meadows...

Donovan: ... inviting flutters...

Donovan: ... and wanderings...

Donovan: ... through Thistles...

Donovan: ... where they find each other...

Donovan: ... and how about me?...

Donovan: ... until the next time...

Painted

Coolidge Reservation, Massachusetts

Watching butterflies makes me wonder how and why they look the way they look ?
  Is it existential or purely to enchant ? To enchant Whom ?

  And how this helps them to survive ?

  I do not know,
     but feel that BEAUTY is systemic to nature and the genes just learn to express IT... 

Coolidge Reservation: ... makes me wonder...

Coolidge Reservation: ... how and why they look the way they look ?...

Coolidge Reservation: ... is it to enchant ? and whom ?...

Coolidge Reservation: ... beauty is systemic to nature...
