Maybe your lightning bug was greeting his god. Or, he could have been issuing a challenge, which would be pretty foolish... Very clever poem.
This is a most wonderful photo! Flashes in the night, exchanging moments of illumination; the beauty is not diminished by size. Lovely.
Wow. I thought you had to have a jar to catch a lightning bug. So nice.

"Flashes in the night, exchanging moments of illumination"_(isn't that poetry!)

lightning bug replies _contrasted with-"then deep water
gazed back into me"_ just by what we are willing to percieve meanings change.
ur lovely poem and picture make me think that the phenomena of the inanimate and the living
are conflated in fighting the darkness..many thanks..
A conversation between a bug and lightning what a fairy story that would make!
I loved Raven's comment too :o)
percieve>please read perceive..
thanks..
Wonderful poetry, but I'm rather taken with the lightning bug! I had no idea they were so big!!
Poor little insect... if he pursues his love he will be struck dead.
Clever. I haven't seen a lightning bug since I visited Kansas in my 8th year. I love 'em.
Because he must, I suppose! The joy of this is wonderful. Makes me think of writing poems or essays or anything. What hasn't been said by some giant that I can say? Doesn't matter, I think. I write because I must. When I do again, I will think of your poem!
What a thought. Like it!

Cute take on folly. I haven't come up with one yet. Like the photo.
An amazing thought on fireflies. They are so amazing in themselves, and this carries it beyond.
the photo is wonderful too.
Beautiful! I love it.
Thank you.
What a great shot--I tried getting a pic of a firefly No luck whatsoever. But ladybugs land on me all of the time.
Deb,
