The threads you mention can also be attributed to the thread connecting fireflies-glowing-ardent. A delightful offering, Eve. Hugs // paul

I have never really been a huge fan of haiku, but this one was very beautiful. For a three line piece of poetry, you got a lot of imagery across in your language. I especially like your use of the word "ardent" at the end. Reminds me of summer in a simple, beautiful way!
