The Butterfly and The Bumble Bee

Lone thistle stands among lofty pines
a butterfly lands on tubuler spines

A graceful dance as nature sings
upon sunlit transulcent curtained wings.

Purple tinge begs nectars delectation
stentorian bumble bee intends full participation.

Butterfly insists on drinks first right
as bee is ejected with mighty blight



Butterfly on a lone thistle among lofty pines
ousted the bumble bee, imbibing in supreme sublime.
