I am a little milkweed seed
Carried by the wind
So many places that I have been
I am a little milkweed seed
Flying in the breeze
Twirling and dancing through the trees
I am a little milkweed seed
Floating in the air
Entrusted to the wind’s special care
Released from my mother plant
Freely I roam
Searching and longing to find a new home
I am a little milkweed plant
Growing in the ground
This is my new home that I have found!
