    Thanks Dan.
    Shared the "moth" one on our little "Amis de la poésie, bonjour" FB Group with french translation :

    Mais vois comme une mite
    avec ses antennes roussies
    se baigne dans la lumière.

    I second Charles's comment. Also, heartwarming to see a photographic image of a public phone. Do they still exist? Thanks, Donna
