Fireflies in a jar
Full of roses
Lighting up the night
And filling up the room
With the scent of the petals
Like the rose,
you attract me
To your center
Where I could
Live out my life
Happy forever more
Basking in the warmth that is you

Ohh 😯 I got a little tingle! Lovely job and cool photo M. Combs. 😁☺️
This was sooooo gorgeous! Loved your poem and cover photo!
I once semi-courted a young lass who along with her brother would catch fireflies so they could smash them on the pavement smearing their phosphorescence there. I prefer your take on it, Mother. No, we didn't last. We barely managed to get started. But the next woman I dated I married. We just celebrated our 38th.
What beautiful visuals
Beautiful piece.
