How Small Is A Matter
Waiting at the traffic light
For it to turn to green
I’m late for work by fifteen minutes
And it matters a lot to me
Standing in the supermarket
With frozen ice for the drinks
It starts to melt and trickle down
And it matters a lot to me
Get out the door and into the car
I hear my voice scream
The children will be late for school again
And it matters a lot to me
The jeans that take forever to dry
And hanging on the line
The weather has changed from fine to rain
And it matters a lot to me
My cellphone won’t work
And I can’t ring to say goodbye
As you wait expectantly at the airport
And it matters a lot me
The Amazon is burning
Floods claim baron lands
Animal extinction is counted daily
And it matters a lot to me
So I put to you just one intention
Spend every day like a fortune
For time is a precious commodity
And it matters a lot to me

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
