See, what's begun - there 'neith the sun - black latticed wings on a milkweed! Eggs will succeed as each one clings fast to a leaf. Time is so brief - larvae must eat. Eat up today, then make a "J" - an agile feat. A chrysalis now, pretty miss - a jade jewel. Time to emerge, yield to the urge. Don’t be a fool!
