Fireflies
Festive fliers
Floating o’erhead alight
Youthful night-presence summons delights,
Inflamed

should show up for your adorable Cinquain~



Love it~

Hi Steaven

This was a great piece of writing.  We don't have fireflies here in Australia but I have always found they fascinating.

Take care........Sue

Marge, thanks for the little bugger...the topic was chosen more out of an assignment than an inspiration

Sue, sorry that you do not have them there...one of the most beautiful sights on a clear summer night is the harvest lightshow of these fascinating little creatures

Enjoyed this one so much...Macy goes crazy over those little creatures, always wanting me to catch them for her.

Now you really got me longing for summer and what lies in another season.

Enchantress, the only thing that can warm you in this deep freeze are thoughts of summer...and what better to think of than fireflies

Pat, thanks for reading, but this ice is just soooooo coooooold.  Say hi to Macy for me.

Those fireflies are such a natural wonder.

I hope someday I can be in a place,
where I can see them often.

Thanks for this Steven.
I really enjoyed it!

(smiles) Yay! Awwwwwwww, I love fireflies and as a little boy I always went around chasing them and putting them in a jar, but only temporarily so they can be free, yay! (big angel hugs) God Bless You, sweet friend, this is glowing with smiles, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Steaven, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,

Hi Steaven,
I see that you did a cinquan....and very,
very well, too. I like fireflies, too.
