[bodytext] => Remember when you were young? The fireflies. Running barefoot in the dark... Brandishing a wild smile... And a transparent jar... Catching the tiny drifting illuminated yellow spots of familiarity. Now I'm sitting in the gloominess of this all too tired room... Watching fireflies outside my window. I won't get up and go to catch them... What would be the point? The child within me has come and gone... Lord how I miss her... She didn't need a reason to be silly. She didn't have any reason to worry about what other people thought. All that matter was the fireflies... Setting alight to her imagination... Burning fiercely like a nightlight... Illuminating the unwelcome path of adulthood... and individuality... But Lord... As the road grows longer... And my inner child grows quieter... I've noticed my path grows darker... It's so much darker on the other side of things... All of the fireflies have been let out of the jar...

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
