Ergo, the Ogre

A large, sprawling oak tree with thick branches covered in green moss, surrounded by lush greenery in a natural setting.

the sound of the surf
enters my home through the open window
and a butterfly   © Chèvrefeuille (2018)

 

glides in, as if on a wave,

alights on kitchen counter.

 

Antennae twitching

Orange-yellow wings shudder

Ever so slightly.

 

Cat and butterfly each aware

Of the other. Neither moves.
