dove-gray
hummingbird moths
intricately dancing
columbine and lilac waltzes
on the warm summer dusk; toasts of nectar,
thrumming of polite courtesies,
bowing prismal partners
into ev’nings
dove-gray

Nice imagery and well done in form. When the dance between insect and plant life goes on and its symbiosis entrances the eye, the joy of life continues. Thanks for entering into the contest,
