they appear
and immediately
capture all the attention
lighting up the darkness
brighten up the night
move vivid ancient dances ...
unconsciously enchanting
small and majestic
naive  and strong
like fireflies
you’d put  them in a glass case
possession and protection
... but in a flash ...
they’d fall off
like fireflies
fullness and life ...
a flutter
a jolt that shakes the soul
like fireflies ….
appear and leave you speechless
intimate awareness of being alive ...
fullness and life ...
a flutter
a jolt that shakes the soul
sons …
passing…
consuming happiness…
