i walked along the river
soaking in the calm and quiet summer evening–
how many shades of green could i see?
was that a finch calling out?
what kind of fish were jumping out of the water?
tonight there will be lightning bugs on the grass,
and i will catch a couple in my hand
and then set them free–
where are the lightning bugs during winter?

a beautiful walk. And those little buggers hibernate in the ground and trees – kinda like wish we could do during the cold months – eh?! 🙂

I love them so much. One of my favorite things about summer. Maybe I’ll try taking a photo of them (or more accurately ask Wolf to take one). 🙂
