Firefly

lighting up the night-shade leaves

!

how bright

that fly

lights up the leaves

lit by the moon

and stars!

Contained?

Is it my turn to get washed?

bright, clean container:
family scents, soft pillows,
waiting for water!

“You’re too bright for me! I’m just a baby!”

“Just because I’m in the dark, doesn’t mean you get to be on top all the time!”

“Black and white movies in my eyes: before the talkies came calling…”

My eyes
are not for you to see;
but me to be
a she or he:
a dark-eyed
mystery.
