Beautiful! Reminds me of my childhood in New Jersey. We (my 3 siblings) and I would catch them, jar them and set them free.

Something about fireflies just takes me back to the purity and innocence of childhood summers.

They seemed so magical when I was a kid. Still do, I guess.

The scent of the honeysuckles is just beginning to fill the air here in Maryland. It makes me remember my youth every time I smell it. There's nothing quite like the promise of summertime.

Thanks for this lovely piece. And happy July birthday to you from a fellow Cancer!

Such a gorgeous piece! Captures the beautiful innocence of those sticky watermelon summers of youth. Who says we can’t go home?
