| The Moth written by William Henry Davies |
| Nature Poems (1908) | Link to further information |
Say, silent Moth,
Why thou hast let
The midnight come,
And no dance yet?
Man's life is years,
Thy life a day;
Is thine too long
To be all play?
Man's life is long,
He lives for years;
So long a time
Breeds many fears.
Thy life is short:
Whatever its span,
Life's worth seems small
Be't Moth or Man.
