Milkweed

The field is full of pods Ready to let the seeds fly Milkweed, bursting with life Waiting to spread growth Like 100 plants of inspiration Showing positive change New beginnings and hope This is what nature can teach In so many glorious ways The ongoing lessons of our lives Taught by everything around us - On any given day - Heidi Sands 10/2/19

I also was amazed you could write about milkweed without mentioning Monarchs! So it seems you are prepared to win the butterfly contest! Aloha! Rico

Another beautiful slice of nature is found in your poetry. I have read that milkweed is the favorite food of the Monarch butterfly. Nice one Heidi.
