why we do


 nature preserve
 way station
milkweed garden

monarch heaven.






it is said that the monarch
will migrate south
where it
continues its life cycle
of laying eggs
and finally dieing.

the new caterpillar
will emerge and begin its
life cycle
and
when it becomes
a beautiful butterfly
it will migrate
north
to the very location
its parent
butterfly
lived.

my yard.

and that's why
we do what we
do.


standing
in awe of
everyday miracles.
