MONARCH MAGIC I watch with awe as you spring
Free from the prison you enclosed yourself in;
Cracking the capsule of crystal that captures
Your beautiful body and budding wings.
You push through, and nature sings.

Like sails catching a sudden gust
Those frail folded flaps unfurl;
The sun toasts them dry of their newborn dew.
They shimmer brightly in a new world;
White dots and black stripes on rust.

Before long you enjoy freedom won,
Vitalized with rest from tiresome struggle
You left behind your chrysalis husk
That kept you safely wrapped in a bundle
And race toward the distant sun.

I know just where you will go,
As you ride the breeze to the horizon.
You will meet millions and travel south
In an orange blanket that smothers the sky
Destined to find home in Mexico.

You will soon rob this land of your grace
And leave it as dull as pale elephant skin
For many months of biting wintry weather
While you dance in warm sun rays
Spreading your magic in that new place.

But someday I will meet your kin
That will bring beauty back to my tree,
Sipping sweet nectar from its new blossoms
And hanging crystalline ornaments.
