RE: Verse
I wrote that covering a study hall the day before Christmas vacation.

RE: Verse
Monarchs float on
Currents invisible Like feathers with wings As the late day sun bakes With warm approval Orange glow While shadows tiptoe Across the garden Over wild oregano And purple hydrangea Light collides with dusk Slowly extinguished By tall evergreens that rise above Moist earth like pillars Ancient like the wind. Vincent-August 18, 2003 "Wish I didn't know now what I didn't know then." "Try to catch the deluge in a paper cup." "Every new beginning comes from some other beginning's end." |

RE: Verse
I like it Vincent, and since it was written on my 33rd birthday, I double approve!
My younger daughter's 1st grade class has a butterfly cage where they've been "hatching" butterflies since the beginning of the school year. So far they've released Monarchs, Painted Ladies and Swallowtails. Blah blah blah....yada yada yada! |

RE: Verse
I hatch painted ladies in the spring with my class, but not the others. Do you know if they collect caterpillars or chrysalis' over the summer, and save them for the fall?
The Groundhog lied. |

RE: Verse
The butterfly house at the Detroit Zoo is one my favorite places there. You walk through (watch your step) and they land on you and flutter all around...just beautiful.
