Fireflies held aloft, cupped softly
between two hands. Flicker on…
off…on…off…under darkening skies.
On…off…dim…dimmer…
flutter palms’ release.
Dance free, bright within the night.
Could it be that easy,
as simply letting go?

This really is delightful and I love the idea of fireflies and then the letting go of ourselves.

me too and the idea that hope needs to be set free to thrive, not kept cupped in the hand, kept to oneself but shared with all who see that firefly of hope. 🙂

Yes, I agree and think we need to do that with the natural world as there is so much that can escape our notice and needs to be known to help it survive!
