I AM A MOTH, by EUGENIE CATHERINE PAUL First Line: I, a moth of pretty things Last Line: Trembles through me in the light. Subject(s): Moths | ||||||||
I, a moth of pretty things, In the candle of God's eye, Brush the air with gauzy wings, Round and round Him try to fly Earthbound, straining to depart, I, so dim, to Him, so bright, With a fearsome joy, my heart Trembles through me in the light. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...LOBOCRASPIS GRISEIFUSA by TED KOOSER THE WOOLEN BUG by JOHN FREDERICK NIMS ALL FOOLS' CALENDER by DONALD (GRADY) DAVIDSON THE MOTHS: 1.
