where the butterflies went trailing fingers there

Thanks so much, Alan. I love yours too. Living now in the suburbs, I see more butterflies than in the city. But of course, they are there too …
I live the threeness of this Amy! Beautiful
Alan, yes. Fingers.
mother’s hands butterflies weave the dark of my shiny braids
Beautiful!
wishing for butterfly effect! from neighbor to neighbor… they know togetherness !
Your haiku is lovely, Alan. Thanks for sharing it. Living in the suburbs, I get to see more butterflies than in NYC, though of course, they are there too … but sometimes harder to experience.
The recent climate changes have brought about a feast of various butterflies that have been absent for years!
A very old couple of ones now:
over the nettles where I know I just can’t go orange-tip butterfly

And another straight up one!
flash of yellow a butterfly headbutts me in my work break

Same bridge I got head butted by a pipistrelle bat one late evening! :-)
warm regards,
