Fireflies


Our skin and bones:
veneer holding soul.

We dance by
like feather breath on window
and newborn snow.

We drink in
chocolate moments:
peppermint winters,
paprika summers,
bittersweet autumns,
milky springs.

A few souls see
how bright we are beneath,
dazzling in the dark,
like fireflies
spilling out summer song.
How much a soul aches
for a moment to be known.
