This butterfly is a Spotted Monarch that I captured photographically on this lovely flowering plant during a walk around Lake Phalen in St. Paul, Minnesota.

This Poem is a Butterfly Cinquain.
I realized that I meantioned that I wrote a Butterfly Cinquain, but I actually forgot to post it. So, here is this omitted format of my Cinquain series.
The Butterfly Cinquain takes two 5 line Cinquains, with a syllable count of 2,4,6,8,2, and joins them together, by linking the last to syllables of the first to the first two of the second Cinquain, to form a single 9 line poem (because they both share 1 link) that makes a butterfly pattern. A lovely result.

This photograph was taken by the author himself on May 18, 2012.
