Good morning, everyone!
Of dragons and butterflies, glitter, galore
flitting round shrubs and seashore
chrysalis green, trimmed with gold
a natural phenomena hanging from the lowly milkweed pod
a Monitor butterfly, orange and black
they come for the summer, then never come back
a new generation visits on warm lazy days
the dragonfly swoops round in the most graceful of plays.
Summer winds down these late August days
making the way for Fall and it's dispay
of red and yellow and muted orange
our eyes never grow tired from the bounty she holds.
