FIREFLIES

June.

Warm, breezy, dark evenings,

my sisters and I ran circles in the back yard,

my grandparents sitting in their

aluminum, mesh webbed chairs,

a pleasant childhood playground,

Ball jars with aeriated lids,

to capture the lighted beetles speckling

the air with neon green lights.
