shimmering fireflies
into the eyes of beloved
a passionate love
~
old stream of water
soldier returns home from war
black tears, fireflies gone
~
midnight moon shines bright
hotaru glows at distance
illumination
~
a mid-summer day
young boys trot towards river
waiting for the fire
~
waters set on fire
man gazing into his soul
a soundless twilight
~
splendor of fireflies
fairy tale coming to life
spectators gather

I can’t help but wonder who the gathering spectators are. Voracious birds, perhaps? 🙂
