Light Show
By Alchemist
Carnal fireworks behind glass are
Insect aurora like a carnival in a jar
Summer’s kami’s of light
forlorn
By taskmaster children that
mean no harm
Chasing fireflies like
meteor shower swarms
Bottling lightning
bugs like thunder storms
Hidden messages
with the tempo of Las Vegas
A neon ballet
in tune with a synchronized cadence
Winged beetle nebulas’ of bioluminescence
Feral rockets with a lime glowing essence
Fleeting auras like shattered chandeliers
Symphonies flickering in clammy night
air
Scattered constellations low in nature's care
Confined to
be a glittering opera for sparkling stares
Their crescendo suppressed
by fleshy bars
Now sentenced to be a light
show of grounded stars
Prisoners until they fade to the bright afar

Aww so bright & sweet! I love fireflies. This piece brings out both the human-eye view & from the firefly as well.
