little white moth

poem by: Alice Inwonderland
Written on Aug 05, 2016

Its little white wings 
Flutter softly against 
The black window pane
Attracted by the light
A shade of bright
Against the dark

Its  warm wings hit the cold
Flapping against the
Wide, wet, window
Painlessly, its little white legs scurry 

Quietly against the black window
Attracted by the dew
A place of warmth against the cold

Silently it stops 
A dot upon my window
Barely visible yet
I cannot tear my eyes away from 
The little white moth
So happy on my dark window
Pane.
