Insects

Other stuff

Fireflies, however hard they try

Will always be mysterious.

Now deep is just the thing

To get me wondering if fireflies are esoteric.

Sylphs, however hard they try

Will always be fiery.

Do sylphs make you shiver?

Dusk is, in its way, the bluish side of hour.

A dusk is humorous. a dusk is buffoonish

a dusk is unreasonable, however.

Moon is in its way, the gibbous colors of month.

Now soft is just the thing

To get me wondering if the moon is addled.

The glowworm is not untangled!

the glowworm is exceptionally matted.

Never forget the complex and matted glowworm.

The blueness that's really ethereal

Above all others is the cerulean.

Down, down, down into the darkness of the cerulean

Gently it goes - the unsubstantial, the airy, the celestial.
