Ah, but Kash, we also have symmetry in our wings, if we acknowledge. :-)

the leaves spinning out
of butterfly dreams
Absolutely lovely! Symmetry stays even as we wander.
Love it.
Love it, too!
Good one, Kash.
Fresh and it's nicely done!
__Just my humble echo to your fine haiku, Kashinath; the symmetry, that mirrored image of a butterfly's wings. _m
a monarch
its wings on the soft breeze
this essence
Niiice KP! Totally unlike your usual, if I may say so
Nice one Kashi- order in disorder.
Thanks to all of you for your inspiring words!It means a lot to me.
Magyar,that is a lovely haiku!
I truly thank you Kashinath; each wing, an essence of the other._m
Wonderfully done! Loved "vagabond life".
Life comes full circle, and one may in the course of things gain the freedom to become a vagabond, flitting here and there……very nice!
Good one! though I must say I did not get this in one go…but on re-reading this I find this absolutely wonderful!
A lovely sense of freedom in this.
