BUTTERFLIES IN MY GARDEN

I can sit and watch tirelessly when the summer butterflies find their way to my gardens. This one seemed too impatient to stay in one spot for long so I found myself following it all over my yard ... my original reason for being out there, to mow and weed eat, long forgotten.

I will send this picture to my son, to remind him these years of his imprisonment are as fleeting as the lives of these lovely creatures.

We are like butterflies who flutter for a day and think it is forever. ~Carl Sagan
