There is a flow of joy as we see fireflies lighting the dark night. Unfortunately their number dwindle day by day. Sad they are fast becoming extinct. Beautiful pleiades and a great entry for the contest. All the Best dear Gina.

Your poem dances. So light and pretty. I like it's alteration when it occurs. There is nothing like a firefly is there? Did you ever catch one and for only minutes watch it light up a jelly jar? Your poem is delightful. I've read it 3 times. Just lovely.

Wow the wordplay and imagery in this descriptive pleiades is so impressive and magical. I can see them fireflies flickering gold as i read your lines. As always you’ve done it so well. Top winner for sure.
