Dancing butterflies

Wanderer butterfly: flying free 
Tasting the sweet nectar
Of that flowering Loquat tree
In Angaston: right behind 
The doctor's surgery! 
Gently blowing warmest breeze 
Weeping willow: a bird maybe: I hear 
Sun peeking through soft clouds: I feel 
Dry walnut leaves rustle on the trees 
Is something coming? 
Are you telling me? 
Is this your warning? 
The calm before the storm? 
I hear the wind sighing: it is calling me! 
Beware! 
Though I am warm today 
Winter is coming: be prepared!
Enjoy these sun-kissed days 
Be amazed: I am here to stay! 
Two wanderer butterflies
Dancing on this breeze 
Pirouetting around each other 
Almost touching: sweetly dipping
Delicately dancing 
Upon the softest breeze!
