Done for Carpe Diem. A Troiku based on Basho’s haiku below:
butterflies and birds
restlessly they rise up
a cloud of flowers

butterflies and birds
on an exchange of colours
bright autumn morning
==
restlessly they rise up
in kaleidoscopic hues
these plumes of feathers
==
a cloud of flowers
rising above the dust
dance of peacocks
