Here comes the floating sea of Monarch butterflies
The amber waves rush to milkweed near the cornfield
Each spring they come beneath the foamy aqua skies
Desire for this plants’ shield has made their fate sealed
This nectar is now poisoned by the acts of man
Descending, tasting their sweet safety unaware
Selfish goals were behind the despicable plan
One by one fall, in despair, kings out of the air
Their decaying wings are perfect symbols of sin
There is no crueler way to kill, than from within
