Royalty in Flight

Minuscule inchworm creature
verdure question mark
clinging to a flopping leaf
tumbling groundward
has no more a clue than I
in less than time for him to die,
or her, no telling to my child's eye,
metamorphed, as poets say,
bowed, took it's leave and flew away,
as Monarch butterfly.
