Duo Ballet.

 

Two late butterflies hovered over sun-dappled
tables at yesterday\'s woodland outdoor room.

 \"\"     \"\"  

Coloured in rainbowed striated gilding their
weightless bodies of delicate strength raced
to get fed and resettle before dark overtook.

 \"\"     \"\"

Duo ballet of bantering filigree in lacy dance
fluttered and hurried to finish a nectar filled
feast as breezes increased and shadows ran
rings around setting sun\'s dimming to dusk.

\"\"     \"\" 

I saw wisdom delivering itself to fate as I
drained my cup in the fading mauve light
and wondered where two beautiful Tinies
would be spending a cold November night.
