Notes About The Poem

Yucca Moth

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

Anne-Lise Andresen August 18, 2023 at 1:51 AM - A great poem, Sara ... (I don't know why ... but, I find the moth disgusting :) - I have never seen this Yucca moth :) - hugs Sara Kendrick August 18, 2023 at 2:47 AM 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

Gershon Wolf August 17, 2023 at 7:37 PM I find this delightful. May I join you and the Moth for tea tomorrow?! ~ Prince Charmed Sara Kendrick August 18, 2023 at 1:34 AM 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.

Vijay Pandit August 17, 2023 at 4:30 AM 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.
