Gossamer

1.  adj.
Definition: light, delicate, or insubstantial
Example: a butterfly's wings
Sentence: The gossamer flower floated down from the air where the wind had blown it.
Notes:  I love this word because of the way it sounds.  It is a delicate word and is beautiful when used properly.  Its gentle sound gives away its meaning from the beginning, so it's easy to remember the meaning.
