In the morning sun
Glitters a Kalanchoe jewel,
Strymon Melinus.
A moth, I think. Ha!
Photo taken, her wings glow
Kissed with light, a jewel.
Fairy princess she,
Silver lace her wings, studded
With paired rubies, poised.
Tartan black and white
Antenna tipped with ruby,
She nods to nectar.
Lycaenidae. Oh,
Butterfly Queen, "Gray Hairstreak",
Silver light you are!
