Poplar hawk moths 🪰

Poplar hawk moths 🪰

Moths flickered in a frenzy beside a lantern light

Madly marauding in multitudes, with all of their menacing might

Underneath that big old harvest moon that shone so bright

Wow millions of poplar hawk moths swarmed, on that particular Autumnal night..

And she was thankful that she was sat in her stationary car

Watching this mayhem of Mother Nature phenomenon from afar

Coz the sheer spectacle of a sight was so bizarre

It resembled an army of slaughtering soldiers, ferociously fighting on the frontline at war..

Darting, diving..desperately driving 

Zig zagging, zooming, controlling, conniving

An infestation of insects that was absolutely thriving

A natural force  of nature that was so obviously surviving..
