longing for the grass
at the bottom of the pool
those fireflies.

longing for the grass
blades wave under prairie wind
rustle in ditches
at bottom of pool
crawdads and minnows asleep
moon passes over
elusive fireflies
hide in long grasses near pond
flicker on and off

You’ve created an idyllic scene, here Lynn! I particularly like the contrast between the rustling grass and the silence of the flickering fireflies.
