Moths

They shun sunlight
but at night, moths
take flight; wings spread.

I can't forget the purplish-blue one that was sadly viewed, pinned on a museum wall near Seattle's Space Needle, nonetheless, 'twas a beauty. My compliments on your placement, my friend.

Yes, I see the beauty in the moths as you so wonderfully expressed, Emile. Congratulations on your win! PS: I never looked at them as beautiful because they are a prime fishing bait that I use to catch trout with. Maybe I'll use worms for now on. (lol)
