In the midst of the lush pink asoka flowers that were blooming, I found a common Mormon butterfly dancing slowly in the beautiful flower cluster. The butterfly was very beautiful, black in color decorated with pure white and brownish white spots. The white and brownish white spots were arranged so neatly as if they were painted by an artist. When highlighted by the soft sunlight, its wings looked shiny, at that time its aura of beauty radiated even more. It was so beautiful, I'm sure anyone who glanced at it would be amazed by its charm.
Not only that, the way it approached the flowers was also very interesting like a very experienced dancer who had memorized all the wind tunes. Every movement was so calm but still looked graceful. Its slender body and slightly curved antennae gave the impression of being so soft and slightly fragile, even though in fact it was someone who was very tough.
The presence of butterflies in the flower garden is only to add to the beauty of the garden, but it indicates that the place is still safe or in other words is a healthy environment. Butterflies only visit healthy places, free of pesticides. In Latin, the common Mormon butterfly is known as Papilio polytes, a butterfly from the Papilionidae family.
