I saw an ocean, to travel across, literally, or as an obstacle. This is because of sea horses and fish mentioned, giving impression of movement and fluidity. The idea of spreading far and wide Also, making people notice by use of the word fanfare, but also linking the idea of fanning wings....... fluttering, a sort of ripple effect, spreading. . wings are a reflecting of each other , and contemporaneous gives the impression that this is happening all over, reflected all over the country or even world. So I conclude it is about the spreading of an idea/ ideal / movement. As the butterfly is rather dull and live on scrubland, the movement or belief being spread may not be all that pretty, as it were.???? Or it could simply be about the adventures of a butterfly called Edith. :-) x x x
