Description Edit 2-26-2011 A little bird told me this was suggested to ^Mollinda to be a DD! It almost made it, but not quite. However, it did make it into a news article featuring almost-DD's that still deserve recognition! [link] Please fave the article and fave the other almost-works too! I'm happy I was even ever close ;A;

Thank you for the support!


-Edit- Fixed image a bit. D: Also, for those of you who want to know, each butterfly and leaf took 5-7 minutes each. :3

Earthly fire sets aflame
when the leaves begin to fall

Death creeps in from soil
Thus they to descend upon all

Wind's spite
and death's might

make a powerful duo
for the eye to see

Together they work to drive
the futtering birds to flee

The guardian watches from below
as they escape their doom

Yet as his eyes glisten,
he knows he will see them soon

Thine eye sees not what is truth as his do
when those birds fly high

In truth the flutterers
are falling through the sky.

yay poem time...

Oh god. I can't feel my hand.


So this is my OC, Kuthren, who I have now fondly dubbed (nickname'd) "Kin" (or Kinny). :3 Originally his markings were green, but I updated him by giving him the power to change color with the leaves.

So, Kinny's favorite season is fall because he gets to be gold then. D: The butterflies you see are my creation as well...their bottom wings are shaped like leaves and their top wings have a distracting pattern.

Because of their vibrant colors, they can only survive in the fall season, so they migrate from forest to forest to escape the winter chill and frosty white-ness.

Since Kinny loves fall, well...he travels with them often, but he's decided to stay behind for now, so he watches them fall through the sky. <3


FFFF. I love this so.


My dream has been to one day recieve a Daily Deviation, and i have a really good feeling about this one. XD

Chara, art, poem, butterflis (c) me
paper (c) some poor dead tree :c

Pleeeeaaase critique? D:
