the moth on the desk lead the annual parade for Spring's arrival. barely remembering, it awkwardly stumbled through air. the summer breeze was in its wind - in the effort of its wings: the sound of barbeque, the smell of the pool. why did I kill it ?

I enjoyed this so much. It's true--the moth seems to lead the parade, huh? (Sometimes our Junebugs show up in May--and I know I'm in for a particularly grueling summer) This was refreshing, Skaa. |

Such warm comments - thank you. June bugs in May. Nice line. how about - "Summer is in a hurry, I saw Junebugs in May." |

A very fine, thoughtful poem. My response to the question is this---the preemptive strike, an enterprise unique to humankind, whether insects under the swatter, or bombs raining from the dark sky. Art |

I don't have an answer for the question. I was intrigued by the irony. It has been an unusually long winter where I am and one would think I would be thrilled to see the Spring parade. Thanks again for the comments. |
