Butterflies
      (again)


They've been distracting me for years, and this is why:
{Kallisti is biting the corner of the notebook as I write. She doesn't want anything to distract me but her}

They're beautiful: scintillating colours and patterns, stained glass fairie wings and elegant antennae, iridescent transparent scales & full of sighs.

They're fragile, delicate & flitting. Light little beings dancing on air and flower petals, free & careless. If you hold them wrong they break.

They drink the dew & honey of flowers! with their curly, long proboscis tongues. & they taste with their feet!
