Light

At first I noticed just a few fireflies in my backyard, but the more I looked for them, the more there were – hundreds and hundreds of fireflies, in the grass, in the trees, and in the shrubs, all flashing out signals searching for mates. In my neighbors’ yards and all around, the trees are full of living lights. It brought me to my knees and as I knelt on the ground I looked up at the universe of fireflies and just beyond them the stars. What is more beautiful then everything glowing in the search for union?
