    Process notes: I’ve actually seen quite a few of these flutter in early spring, but yesterday I do believe was the first I’ve seen of the other butterfly. I think I’ll have to wait for my butterfly bushes to bloom before I see the larger swallow tails and monarchs.

    I am doing a horrible job of reading other poems right now. My apologizes. It is a miracle to actually write one each day. Happy poeming to all!
