Firefly
If I had to use one word to describe our relationship it would be ‘dim’ Never something But never nothing No, we never talked about it like we were each others’ sun Maybe a flickering star at best Like a needle in a haystack It wasn’t apparent to everyone But at least it was there ...

BEATY OF THE SUN
Her parents ,named her Gorgeous Yusuf perhaps if, she was a boy Born in the morning almost sunrise Made her first sound same time as the birds For her beauty a lot would be deducted Even the sun hid behind the clouds in shame The stars would come when she is asleep And take advantage if she slept long that's the morning...

Firefly
Firefly We were sleeping on balmy nights Blinds were awakening in sticky October People were waiting and whispering during the flight Mob was ecstatic and somber. Sylph, a beautiful nymph emerges from nowhere She rushes and lushes everywhere She fused folks around the globe She knows how to handle the mob! Glowing with grace and dignity She wears the...

Be your own Firefly
I can feel u sinking Over thinking Thinking about drinking Feeling hated Colors faded Whole worlds jaded Fear of being rejected Defeated, puzzle pieces all dissected Stop, it's time to redirect it Skies to the water, take a moment and reflect it Remember your roots you aren't alone, we are all connected Reignite the fire within, resurrect it Your worth is priceless, don't neglect it Destiny awaits...

It’s 1:25 why oh why Am I up at this hour Did the phone ring Or was it a denim dream Planted in mind like green flower Earlier today was only half awake Was fatigued and really annoyed Not even piano could I play To fill the blue thrilless void Oh poetry come rescue me Give breath to dormant thoughts Green like my snake...

Firefly
Why are the crows always jealous of the firefly? Why do the eyes always look for dirt on its face? Or are they amazed of its glow? For it does not glimmer but it shines? Though not all can see it. Is it worth it for all the time, efforts and money spent And the sleepless nights...

Premium Member FIREFLY MEMORIES
There was a light rain falling as I walked this morning…the weather was cool and calm when I remembered a night just like this…years ago…in our backyard with my mom. It was the first time I ever saw fireflies…I watched them flash and dance out in the rain It’s a memory that to this day still makes me...

6 lines from Firefly Memories (Terza Rima) As the night rolled into a darkness rich With glimmering fireflies, vibrant, quiet And happy, charming, able to bewitch I caught them in Mason jars that riot Lights going on and off, soft, so soothing Breathing graceful whispers that sigh “try it” 6 new lines (opposing the old poem) Despite the morning, crisp and ever fresh Pouring...

Firefly
The way that fireflies are captured in a jar. And they say “just one more firefly, I guess.” And the firefly is glowing weakly, so they try not to laugh. They are making me dizzy with their kind words. In that cloying way. I’m here, I’m here. I think they know I’m still here. Wondering how they are all so dazzling. Together, they...
