Lampyridae's



"fairies"
she tugged at my shirt,
pointing.

I whispered
in her ear
their
true name.

"lamp pretties"
she squealed
she ran to meet one.

Friday Note:
The scientific name for fire flies is Lampyridae.

We all have a light,
wishing yours shines bright this weekend.

I share small stories/poems/thought-bytes, with artists.
Armed with no background other than the story/poem,
their muse brings the words to life.
Ultimately something new is born.
I have found this co-creation delightful.
This is the fifth that I have shared publicly

Anastasia can be found on fiver https://lnkd.in/eMTcsDm4 Her work layers the magical on reality, and helps me not forget to pay attention and 'see'.
