Butterflies and Thistles

Two Butterflies (Pipevine Swallowtail), Two Thistles — Image by kenne

Two thistles so green
on mountains so blue.
Two cups, each cradling
a blossom so purple.
Pouring forth nectar
each a revengeful burst.

Two butterflies lighting ,
wine tasting of Chardonnay,
winging under the influence.
Leaving each thistle behind,
next Tinker Bell,
next for the old gray Eeyore.
