Two-tailed Swallowtail — Image by kenne
Breezy zephyr sweeps the fields
And the thistle sways and yields
But the butterfly clings fast
As a sailor to the mast
As a banner iu the blast
Which when widest sweep its folds
Firmest still its proud slave holds
— from Butterfly and Thistle by Julia Ward Howe
