In meadows where the milkweeds bloom,
A dance begins, dispelling gloom,
The Danaus plexippus takes the stage,
A Monarch’s flight, a timeless age.
With wings of orange, black, and white,
They dance through day and into night,
A dazzling display, a ballet so grand,
Across open fields and forested land.
They flutter and twirl, a waltz in the air,
Graceful and free, without a care,
A symphony of movement, nature’s own art,
A dance that captures every heart.
From flower to flower, they take their bow,
Each movement a statement, a solemn vow,
To live with purpose, to embrace each breeze,
A dance of life among the trees.
Milkweed Seeds
Seeds for growing plants in the Milkweed genus (Asclepias); required for all Milkweed butterflies, like the Monarch and Queen.
In gardens and wilds, they find their place,
A dance of survival, a gentle embrace,
The Danaus plexippus, a Monarch so true,
A dazzling dancer just for you.
So let us honor this butterfly’s flight,
A dance of beauty, pure delight,
For in its wings, we find a key,
A dance of nature, wild and free.
