Sense Sonnet - Pumper

 Be I Moth or Butterfly?

I'm flying through the air at night.

A human couple walk below.

One points me out in the moonlight,

Asks the other, wanting to know

Whether a butterfly I be,

Or be a moth, a question that

Oft I hear humans ask 'bout me.

But most are only guessing at

Which I am, so this hint I'll say.

A moth, nocturnal at night flies,

Whereas diurnal, during day

A butterfly is on the rise.

So lady of the evening, I

Am a moth, not a butterfly.
