Fireflies

Sorry about yesterday's post. I hope you didn't read it. This one is better.



Do you really expect me to
take such a thing in stride?
Low-flying miracles
under the trees.
Tiny blink-dancing stars
Now to flash, now to hide
No other purpose than
humans to tease.
How can I live with this sight?
Easy to explain but impossible to understand
Magical beings of light
Wide-eyed reflections of wonder and joy
Just like the rest of this world.
