icarus

 plebjus icarus

Wise words he gravely said,

“Now, remember my son,

don’t get close to the sun

because you’ll get fried.”

small but beautiful

gems escape our sight

security

 security

retreat to internal security

but cling to the external fine things

the end

 brown argus / plebejus (aricia) agestis

when you come to the end of the lupine,

try to fly.

Don’t crawl back down to the ground.

Lost, we seek a map

to our existence;

meaning to our meaningless lives

fragile wings

battered in life’s transience

buffeted by stormy winds.

golden fritillary day

dark green fritillary

today is like no other

because it is

a golden fritillary day

suspension

 suspension

time hangs heavy on us

weighed down by hardships

and frustration

with efforts in suspension
buffeted by time.

survival

 meadow brown

cling

to the stalk of life

even with half a wing

Irritation

 fky

Irritation may be my name

but inspiration is my game.

When you’re furious with my interminable buzzing

that’s when you’ll become enlightened.

dreams

 dreams

dreams

ethereal damselfly wings

torn by life bitter winds
