Green Marvel (Acronita fallax)
Night light a bit too bright
Misguided moth settles on the screen
Night flight, viburnum bite
Interrupted by the porch light scene
Black and white fringe delights
Bordering a mint-chocolate-chip green
Moss-like during daylight
Bulb out! Return to woodland canteen.
A naturette poem.
A form I invented to celebrate tiny bits of nature.
Rhyme, lines and syllables are:
6AA, 9B, 6CC, 9B, 6DD, 9B, 6EE, 9B
This one is inspired by my love of and curiosity for moths. And what lands on the screen door on those warm evenings when I leave the porch light on.
