Lightening Dots Dance

Luminescent lights
bouncing through the nighttime air;
fireflies, in my yard.

Dear L.M. KISER Lovely old town feeling here my fellow souper, Great feeling of warmth brings back memories of my own youth. I can remember hearing the cries of the locus, and crickets in the well painted verses you've written about here. I remember being that little girl carrying that jar, thanks for the time travel, back to the time of my innocence, cheri

Your words paint the scene with a clarity that brings the essence of your experience into our conscious minds and we too can see the fireflies. Emile. #7
