Milkweed Wonder Pod

I picked a ripened pod And split open at its seam, Hundreds of seeds attached to Fluffy tufts of hair. I blew gently and sent a myriad silken little parachutes into the air across the meadow! Abdul Malik 12/20/12 Natural Landscape

This is a great descriptive work of what would happen if one opened one of those pods..Amazing how they can land on hard ground and a new plant spring up there..Enjoyed reading today..Thanks for stopping by..May this be the best Christmas and may joy, peace, and love reign in your New year..Sara
