Caterpillars eating the leaves of ilang-ilang (Cananga odorata), at home near La Mesa watershed.
They
came – armies of hungry glowing worms,
on a sunset on a tall ilang-ilang tree;
there
they hang like lanterns, neon light far away,
and in crepuscular light - there I could
see
a
familiar tree traced by its essence in the air,
this time by phosphorescence set free –
Christmas
ahead and beyond, yet here at hand
by the light of these worms reminds of
Thee,
by nature’s
ways to keep the frail and lowly
through the secret of ephemeral beauty. ~
