LIGHT UP THE LANTERNE Poetry Contest/ Nette Onclaud/June 18, 2025
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                     flies
                   near by
               dead bonfire
                pyrophilous
                     glow

Very clever! :) Certain insects and plants rely on fires for parts of their lifecycle. Your works are awash with nature. Cheers - Gary

Oh thank you for your kind visit dear poet. Red Data shows fireflies are critically endangered, a few species are vulnerable due to habitat loss and ironically by light pollution. It has been a decade someone spotted fireflies at our farm. I am glad you liked this lanterne. Thank you so much for your words, precious for me. pleasant day it is now.
