When shall I fly? ~a 5.7.5. haiku chain~
Paper Luna moth
Climbing the tree of still life
Moon phase is quartered
°
Should I fly away
Is it perhaps best to stay
By dawn's early light
°
Dew on the grasses
Would only slow my gray flight
Tree of life massive
°
Launching from this twig
Would give up my camouflage
Steady wins the fight
°
Sturdier night times
Should awaken the day times
Shudder now in place
°
Perched here in wonder
Will branches grow overnight
That's when I shall fly.
