Monarch Butterfly

Monarch butterfly, how majestic, how iconic, Monarch butterfly, how beautiful are your wings of yellow and black, You fly through the air with strength and ease, Yet without a guide, only your inner GPS, to guide you along, Monarch butterfly, we pray you are not without a home. Monarch butterfly, we are all in awe of you, Your gentle wings have touched our souls, The will to keep going to your flowers for nectar, We are here waiting for you to return to us, We love seeing your soft spoken breeze, kiss our cheeks with your good luck. Monarch butterfly, we are here waiting for your flight home, We promise to plant milkweed, so that you can be fed, We know when your come to see your special space, That our loved ones gone before us, have come to say "I love you". Majestic monarch butterfly, we will be here waiting for you to land, Thank you for showing us your endless beauty.
