In a quiet corner of nature I found a Common lime butterfly perched beautifully on one of the dry twigs. In Latin this butterfly is known as papilio demoleus, which is one of the medium-sized butterflies from the papilionidae family.
The appearance of this butterfly is very beautiful and harmonious like a canvas painted directly by sunlight. The basic color of this butterfly is yellowish white decorated with black, orange and blue. A very beautiful and enchanting combination of colors.
In the middle of its wings there is a unique pattern that resembles an eye. The pattern is not just a pattern for the beauty of its wings, but rather a symbol of resilience in gentleness.
The butterfly I met was not chasing colorful flowers and it also did not dance in the air to get praise from me. It just stayed still on a dry twig there. But the silence of the butterfly was not emptiness but a harmonious calm and peace.
The serenity displayed by the butterfly is like a song sung by nature that can only be heard by a calm heart.
