The Ruddy Cooper – Appearing super;
Bright colored wings – So interesting;
Nice patterns too – An orangish hue;
I wonder how – I see him now
Early April – Just after snow;
Has melted fast – Cold time is past;
Where did he live – During the cold;
Did he pass winter – Down some hole?;
Emerging with – The growing sun;
Enjoying life – Now spring’s begun;
I don’t know much – Of butterflies;
And how they live out – Their short lives;
I think they meta – morpho size;
Old college courses – Come to mind;
Facts that I once – Had memorized;
Now in my distant – Memory lies.
