meadows of milkweed for monarchs
we scan for yellow black stripes
and then the chandeliers of chrysalis
until the triumph of your red-orange winged flight
Come And Go
Like Lovers Parting
monarch and flower
kissed by the sun
one final embrace
before the journey’s begun
Gathered and Dispersed
the congregation
of monarchs
billows away
Iconic Pollinator
so many years
we’ve missed you
how good to see you back
Stages
the beauty
inside
yet to be seen
Humble Abode
unassuming bloom
calling
monarchs home
