Yucca moth small white Feeds upon yucca Quite unique sight Could say pure pukka. 'Pon tea, did alight. Right in my cuppa Quite a unique sight Sails of felucca A moth so white bright But blends with yucca Quite a unique sight Blended in plica A form called Yodel. Pukka meaning excellent or high class Felucca a sailing ship Plica folds of a plant

You may have, Valsa. Where Yucca grows it probably would be around. Thanks for the visit to my page. Sara

Anne-Lise, I think that moth says to us, I will eat holes in your woolen clothing, try to put out your candle burning, eat up your cabbage plant, in your underwear make a dent, etc. I think we associate it in a negative way because they have a symbiotic relationship to a plant which they may eat. Thank you for the visit to my page. Your visits are always inspirational. Sara

I find this delightful. May I join you and the Moth for tea tomorrow?! ~ Prince Charmed

Prince Charmed, please do drop by but it will be coffee or Arizona tea with ginger. LOL..One thing for sure we won't have a Yucca moth join us or at least I don't think so because I have never seen one but I do have a form of Yucca in my yard but my father called it bear grass or kiddingly Japanese begonia.

You gave the moth a high class on your page. It takes quite a talent to weave poems on what we see around us. Well done, Sara.
