Part of this butterflies upper wings has broken off. I love butterflies and always hate to see any butterfly missing part of its wing. It always means the butterfly soon will no longer fly. Her wings can no longer take the stress of everyday flights She has done her job of mating and laying eggs for a new generation. Still it's hard knowing that such a beautiful creature will soon no longer be.
She still is irresistible though and I still enjoyed the view. I hope you do too! Hope you enjoy! Thanks for stopping by! :o) Helvi

Since I write poetry too I wrote a shot little poem below that I hope you enjoy!

She is the darling of the sky...

The fragile, charming butterfly...

The wind will always stop and sigh...

When this fair lady passes by...
