Bedazzle
'Twas when he saw her flutter by
A shadow fresh from her cocoon
The spiral speak of butterfly
A flashing psychedelic swoon
And soon she would bedazzle him
By whisper'd soft her wing'ed love
Her silver trails in garden dim
'Neath canopy of limbs above
A-quake, a-quivered Romeo
To stalk his Monarch Juliet
Viceroy, Skipper, Crescentspot
Nor Marblewing to hold her yet
The common Nymph he calls her not
This Painted Lady, Chalk Hill Blue
No Satyr, Emerald, Meadowlark
Nor Sulfur, Milkweed, Metalmark
Thus through the phases of the night
Each twist and turn emits their spark
Such faerie queen designed, delight
Her starry wingspread orbits near
He fair takes in her powdered scent
This moth's exquisite presence here
He follows her in moonlit gleam
His passion-spent his destiny
She's long desired in his dreams
Till final breath in ecstasy.
