Watching a butterfly slake its thirst.
From a purple flower.
Probably a thistle, but I don’t know for sure.
Still the delicate beauty of the magnificent creature captivated me when I took the photo and it captivates me now.

Perfection is nice.
Symmetry is appealing.
Sometimes
wounded wings
can fly.
