Field of Monach's

I can't believe my eyes
I have counted seven
Now nine monach butterflies
As I pulled beside the road
To pass some time.
Here they are with breathtaking
Beauty, unnoticed by those
Driving, jogging, briskly walking by
These lovely gifts of nature
For now are multiplied!

It's been a spell since I left a comment Pauline. I've been by to read the posts, just didn't have the puff to stay and make a comment. Last week back to work took everything out of me. I am only getting back up to speed now.

Reading this verse I am reminded how everything has a purpose. And how we go about our business not taking the time to stop and see the beauty that is around us. It is such a shame more people don't take time to stop to "Smell The Roses", they are missing out on so much. Everytime I go for my walk, I see something new, even if it is the same walk I make and the same route.

Have a Blessed Sunday Pauline

Pauline, the Monarch Butterflies migrate by the hundreds to Northern Idaho. I have literally sttod in a cloud of them. It is awesome and special. I am glad you had this treat.

People too busy going somewhere, anywhere ...they do pass by such lovely treats offered free by nature's smile. I wish that more could take some time to notice. Yes, it is special, beautiful and you cannot help but be moved by the beauty of a monach! One is magnificent.
