i do believe you DID mean On molting** wings! ** In biology, moulting (British English) , or molting (American English) , also known as sloughing, shedding, or in many invertebrates, ecdysis, is the manner in which an animal routinely casts off a part of its body (often, but not always, an outer layer or covering) , either at specific times of the year, or at specific...

Congratulations on the poem's selection for the Day. Though, a very small number of dreams live to see the light of the day, the poem has nicely portrayed the death of a dream. Thanks.
