I almost wish we were butterflies and liv’d but three summer day — three such days with you I could fill with more delight than fifty common years could ever contain.
John Keats
to the love of his life Fanny Brawne, 1819
You can see the film version of this enduring love affair – the movie was made by Jane Campion and is called Bright Star.
If you live in Auckland you can step into a delightful garden called Butterfly Creek where you can watch the butterflies flutter-by.
