If we lie among the fireflies tonight We might reflect the energy of their light And under these stormy skies flashing bright Restore our shattered faith and with them take flight. © 061703 |

Venus, Foxy, Dixie, Thank you all for you comments. I'm glad you liked this. Every year about this time a passing evening storm and the fireflies get together for a special presentation. Unfortunately, I'm always alone when it happens and have no one to share it with. Darn.  s.a.g. |

you inspire me.......... Low Lying Fog I have looked behind every blade of grass where your steps once laid I am here now you were there then just to be where you have been touching a ghost that was your shape and breathe your air that did escape grabbing at just a mere shadow in low lying fog of empty meadow |

S Arthur.....Nature has many picture shows...this one I'm sure was beautiful. I've watched the show of storm, but I've never seen a fireflies warm. |

I watched last Saturday night as the fireflies completely took over a friend's backyard...and what a show they put on. It reminded me of tiny fairies carrying tiny lights... ~Summer smiles, Nancy~ ~The breeze that kissed you on the face, |
