As it flutters
I see it's bright colors
And it loops
With wings so delicate
And beautiful
That it doesn't look like a bug

Although it is a bug
When it flutters
It's so magnificently beautiful
That the colors
Look delicate
While it loops

It wears loops
And is the envy of other bugs
That wish their wings were delicate
I see it flutter
With warm colors
So beautiful

I wish the world was as beautiful
As it loops with sun-kissed colors
And the jealous bugs
Imitate the flutters
Of the one that's delicate

As if dancing a delicate
Dance through the beautiful
Air while it flutters
It does a loops
That is the eye of every bug
In every color

In a rush of colors
The one-so-delicate
Apparent bug
Zips into a beautiful
Set of loops
As away it flutters

And as it flutters
I see the blurred colors
In the loops
Of the delicate
Beautiful
Bug

This was my first sestina that I ever wrote, by the way...

I made a mistake for the part 'As it loops with sun kissed colors' that's supposed to be 2 not 1.
