See milkweeds dancing for the Queen.
Migrating Monarch has returned.
Desire to fly back home was keen.
For this delight the Queen has yearned.
Each fall this butterfly leaves home
on yearly trip to Mexico.
Cold weather forces her to roam
in search of sunny Southern glow.
With wings of gossamer she flies
to highland forests where she'll breed.
In spring an orange cloud will rise
with offspring following her lead.
These dancing blossoms lure them back
to grace our gardens in the spring,
where milky sap serves as a snack
beneath the trees where bluebirds sing.
