Catching Constellations Like Fireflies
If I could catch the stars in a mason jar would it be enough to prove myself? I don't want to be here anymore. I want to be up in space where all of the fireflies reside. They don't care if I'm not good enough. ...

The Faded Garden Swing If the flaked paint on the old swing could speak, it would tell stories of days long ago, Of children's laughter and their bare, muddy feet, Of fireflies caught and imprisoned in empty jam jars, Like the fireflies, my memory flickers, trying to recall who lived across the street. The faded swing’s rusty chains...

flashed autumn’s trees, the limbs gray leaves crunching quietly, like a feeling being crushed, crumpled lost dreams who compel me to see the grief the nostalgia – graceful as a still light falling, aching, engraving hope into the heart, hesitating so I know the music of a thought who hears joy flowing on the echoes grieving for the past, where love could last but never, on...

Pink skies infest the starry dark. Pest sprays reject the fireflies’ spark. Bald eagles chopped by green windmills. Right whales lie beached as sonar kills. Rage that I can no longer view, Bids my sense of wonder adieux....

Amidst a burning skyline where every tick of a gesture a happenstance charges my essence and absorbs this space where discoveries allow me a chance to revel at what is miraculous...the dance of kaleidoscopic stars, toddlers wiggling like cherubs , fireflies dressed like the Orion... and I go with the flow, radiant as wings of revelry guide me through an...

In a dark sapphire night's trance Flirtatious banter romance Bright ray light fireflies upward dance, Amorous scene within heaven's light Others ignite on steeple leaves To the moon's song in full sight. Breeze pushes through full of laughter, Serenading shuttering leaves against the rafter. ...

Sky of Fireflies
We sat on the porch in the tranquil of the night, Our hearts strung to each other, Our hearts buoyed by the beauty of the night, My inspiration finds a pathway between serenity and silence. Fireflies traverse the sky, Their glow lights up the stygian night, We’re absorbed in the view, The sickle-shaped moon stands on its podium. Time has taught us the...

Silver souls melting like lava red hot Cremated by lost lover’s cranberry heart Passion fashioned by Cupid and the breeze Death came too soon taking blue fantasy Was sleep walking through land of sands Hoping only to see familiar face again For love never dies despite tears in eyes Have to find your spirit desperately I try It feels real like I reunite...

My head feels like it's being squeezed in a vise. Eardrums must have blown out from the explosion since I hear absolutely nothing, not even my own breath. Slowly rising to my feet I survey the damage. Left arm gone from the elbow down. Flesh hangs from my right...

A sea of fireflies dance and glow beneath bright stars above the trees; and so they sparkle as they flow with purpose in their new birth breeze. Our souls, like fireflies dance and glow neath Angel wings above the trees; and so they sparkle as they flow with purpose in our new birth breeze. A sea of fireflies, as our souls await their special...

As twilight seeps into darkening night, myriad beetles with tiny wings like those of fairies start to flit around as if they carry miniature lanterns on their small bodies. Their bright lights keep flickering on and off. Soon the stars appear and show their shimmer. Magic fills the night as the fairy insects mimic the sparkling stars with sprinkles of their small twinkling lights. On summer grass, I twirl in moon...

A sky full of fireflies as beautiful as a thousand words of praise falling from your lips spoken with the sound of flowers weaving all the things you do for me when I am happy with my life and love is newly begun in hearts both young and old....

Sultry evening surprise, the starry sky of fireflies! Pink, shining, full moon on rosy, Dragonfly Lagoon. Lofty fireflies are winking, as gold time is blinking. Ash silhouetted clouds, partially veil fleet crowds, that glow emerald green, until so suddenly unseen. The burgundy rose, dreams, as it's taken to dark extremes. Beautiful, flickering skies, in a world of time demise. The whirling fireflies play in huge shadows of day. Starlight on...
