Fireflies wing on a starlight dream
Unwrapping darkness' chemise
Pirouetting amber to gleam
Fireflies wing on a starlight dream
The Ursa swathed in aurum stream
Waking the fire, stirring the moon
Aureus of a glowing rune.
Tracing color in night's darkness
Flaring the space between the trees
Constellations light up the starkness
Tracing color in night's darkness
Braille that makes up the eyes brightness
Like nymphs on a dappled trapeze
Tracing color in night's darkness
A sky glazed with a velvet breeze....

Thank you, Maggie. I keep looking for fireflies in the night , do you ever see them when you lived at your previous place.

Yes but only certain times during the year. They are beautiful 🙂 We use to catch them when we were kids. We’d cup them with our hands so not to hurt them and peak through our fingers to see them 🙂

We did exactly the same. But because of so much deforestation and this concrete jungle coming up, nature has almost vanished.
