"Moth" 

The night shivers out
Hymns upon lonely gray wings 
They drift like a sigh

luna moth-dancing with starlight on the petal of a winter rose
chrysalis cocoon-butterflies with gilded wings-singing songs in spring

ceiling fan tan breeze
moth mistake light bulb for sun
sad day nature faked

Grapes slumbering; on..'
Leafs shading, yeast patina'ed fruit..
Sun-downers tonight..!

Grapes ripening on..'
Vine gripping seasoned trellis.
Purple skies..' ( thirst )

Grapes burgeoning on..'
frame groans; the labourers gains..'
Andean moth drinks..!

Red sparks in brown hair -
Winter sun ignites my Love;
I, her circling moth.

Silent moth, lonely 
Spirit, your dark beauty screams
Trapped under cat’s paw.

it’s  daybreak a moth
unfolds majestically
in a butterfly

a luna moth clings
to the porchlight

Flapping desperately
  Velvet eyes confuse sometimes-
      Moth flies in moon beams

Into the light she 
escaped before she died –
the naughty moth.

Nothing matters now 
The light I see is now my world
My light is now it

Into the light she 
escaped before she died –
the naughty moth.

Blessed purple phlox
Visited by swallowtail
Sphinx hummingbird moth

As moth to the flame,
As rare jewel seizes light--
Captivating wife!

The moth to the flame
Catarpillar to cocoon
Which death is greater?

weeping willow, her
limbs caress giant empty
moth eaten coffins

.

Moth upside down v
Attached to kitchen dark screen...
Desires inner light

Up like a crucifix,
   Where do you go,
Tell me this,
    When u leave us 
below?

brown moth
wings labor under heavy rain
take flight

A white moth flutters
Revealed by the drifting mist
Feeling only cold

Butterfly of night
Unavoidable is darkness
Destined to the light

the moth has got stuck
in the thorns of the cactus
the white buds demur

 the golden moth lights
upon clustered white blossoms
sipping sweet nectar 

brown moth of the night
clings to slippery windshield....
45 wipe out  

quivering wings
on windless day
in flowers sway
hummingbird moth

drops of nectar
glisten in sun
rainbow colors
unfold the dawn

kaleidoscope 
flickers through the night
perfect symmetry

a candle moth flies
out when disturbed by the light...
coffee's aroma  

The golden moth lights
upon clustered white blossoms; 
sipping sweet nectar

tiny, rapid wings
buzzing over purple blooms
probiscus tasting

probiscus reaching
probing, sweet nectar's lifeline
quaff little creature

Candle Moth flies to
The light falls drunkingly down
Returns to the light

(The moth is bound to get way to hot but does the same thing over and over. That is the 
way with some people that keep doing the same thing over and over and never learn from 
their mistakes.)

The thief flees the night

Butterfly escapes cocoon

The moth burns quickly

A light soft flutter
Faithfully carried a moth
Intent on escape

Left the world behind
Through the light and to the moon
She flew quite softly

Flying by and by
Only to see what awaits
Across the night sky

Hi, butterfly,
Hi, mister moth,
I singed my wings,
Close to the 
           ~~~flame?

You hate the light?
No, mister moth.
Love the light, but,
Sun is too 
        ~~~far!

A moth enters a dark
room and sense fate awaits him~~
lit wick, holds magic.

Autumn blossoms
A lone moth sipping nectar
So little time left
