odie....we have a winner...You....must be cuz I'm new at this game[y guessed so fast] or the fact I'd never seen milkweed "in the flesh" [a totally new one on me, so was weird and uknown for the first part of the summer]as it were being city born and bred but. 2 years ago one of these grew in the concrete blocks my mom used as a small flower bed, turned into 2 last year..both years without blooming, and this year turned into a stand of5 plants with one more growing 4 concrete blocks down the line, and they all bloomed attracting many butterflies.

 

Once in a while I look around,
I see a sound
and try to write it down
Sometimes they come out very soft
Tinkling light sound
The Sun comes up again
