milkweed bouquet

milkweeds are a favorite of mine.  they remind me of my wild and unsupervised childhood summers when we snapped their stems to see the sticky white latex milk well up from the hollow stems. in late summer, we would pull apart the pods and send the silken seeds floating on the hot breeze.

gathered today on the highway 694 & rice street off ramp, saint paul, minnesota
