How good scenery you have portrayed, I really loved the use of glasswing and rain forest, and sometimes even rainbow post rain
Thanks for sharing such good imagery
Have a nice day

I am continually amazed at you talent for mixing the natural, simplistic world around us with your own karma, thus metamorphosing a verse, a picture, into a complicated, thought provoking message.
Ah, but isn't it a sublime pain to but pulled into this thought pattern?

This is so simple and a perfect haiku. The butterfly is such a delicate, wonderful creature and you have caught those thoughts in your poem. A beautifully written piece. Susan

A stunning example of nature's delicate magnificence brought to life vividly in your haiku. Your last line definitely produces that ah-ha moment! Subtle punning.

The artwork is awesome and fits like a glove to your well crafted little Haiku friend, I do recall you being a bit of a grandmaster when it came to these delicate little forms. Very Nice !

absolutely lovely, IndianIrish - as graceful as the crystal paned butterfly
and your satori serves double duty. . .just like her pair of wings -
they do, indeed, make for a lovely window to peer into/through to view
the rain forest. . .and to represent the fragile status of all life forms in
this intricate biosphere.

nicely done :-)

Loved this haiku, the glasswing butterfly is really beautiful.
Very clever the way you have captured both the image and survival hopes in the environment in which it lives.
Thanks for sharing

Fragile! You're not joking. That's really something...although (dare I say it? Yeah, what the heck...) it looks more like a moth to me than a butterfly... NOT that I'm any expert on things fluttery...

Anyway, on a more serious note... We're up to chapter 9 of this hair-do book thing. Will there be a murder soon? Some hot sex? Drug smuggling or gun-running?

No? Really? Oh...

Oh well. carry on...

    LOL! A moth? I guess there are some moths that have some beautiful color, but butterflies are prettier flutteries.

    Thanks for reading my hair-do poems, AntMan. Hoping the sponsor's will choose my poems for the book they are publishing. So, no sex or Steven Seagal action scenes...unless I write a haiku about a praying mantis who has wild sex in the woods and she chomps his head off as part of the after sex glow.

    Thanks, TheManlyAnt. You make me laugh and I like to laugh.

    Yeah..the moth remark was just to get your hackles up. I've got a weird sense of humour.
    I'd like to see a hair-do about that praying mantus. I dare you. I'd also like to see how you manage it in 6 words! There's a challenge for you...
reply by the author on 15-Feb-2017
    Six words?? Challenge accepted. LOL
reply by Antoine Charlemaine on 16-Feb-2017
    It'll probably be guaranteed a spot in that hair-do book thingy, anyway.

    Can't wait!

This is very beautiful. I love the vivid imagery I get from the first two lines. Very good concrete image. Your satori is wonderful "rainforest window"
That is just grand! It is a stunning butterfly, I would love to see one in person.
