Sunshine on the wall

Catopsilia pomona, the common emigrant or lemon emigrant - resting on my wall


Come, rest for a while,
scraps of sunshine
flitting across my view.

At the traffic light, I watch
your crazy parabolas
two by two.

Have the rains signalled
your departure?
Are you leaving for the hills?
Emigrant  that you are
Thanks for stopping by.
