Possibilities
        
        
As I left you this evening
the fire flies danced
in the quiet humid heat
of an otherwise
black night
      
The far off flicker
of stormy lightning
suggested possibilities
in the distance
between us
        
We luminesce
in each other's eyes
as we sometimes
flash with the words
we write
          
And we hope
that the coming rain
will grow new seeds
to satisfy
our hunger

trees tumble out of twigs and sticks;

Very lyrical!! We don't have fireflies very often here - too hot for them. This has some incredible imagery.

I have just read this poem after reading the others you have posted. I enjoy your writing very much. You are skilled and sensitive. You are S Arthur Grey, a well written poet, a name I shall look for and remember.
