. You little cliche, you chemical hope on wings- hung in the ripening hayfield gaudy with your brothers in the old search. No one wants to be alone. And when caught like moonlight in my palms, your neon sonnet never stops. 'Here' you tell me. Tell my hands, the night- 'Here I am. Come find me. Here. I am.' . .

If a firefly could speak this is exactly what I'd imagine it would say. Smiles, ms. e |

Delightful poetry. I can just picture that firefly grinning up at you while in your hand. ~*~ If they give you lined paper, write sideways. ~*~ |

One of nature's beautiful mysteries. I love this and how you've captured what so many of us have done. Eric true love never looks after it's own interests |

quote: OMG (first time I use this ) This is beyond beautiful, it makes me shed tears of emotion ... for even the tiny light of a firefly is a perfect reflection of the "I AM". Overwhelmingly wondrous. Love, Margherita |
