somehow i feel like laughing when i read the line "and then... i see... flicker of gold". haha. cute poem. it definitely cheer me up after i read it, though i didn't really analyse what it means. cheers!!

I like it, it is as if what is trying to be caught (firefly) is almost unatainable.

This was beautiful. This was reminiscent of tender and at times sorrowful moments. I can honestly say this was one of the best-written pieces I've read here so far.

The nature to this is more reflective and introspective than what usual writers would put down...combine that with gorgeous imagery and good diction is my favorite concoction.

Something bout this makes me want to cry, perhaps because I can relate to this on some deep level or maybe 'cause i've always been fascinated with the light of the firefly. anyway, beautiful write. Good job!

That's amazing. Truly and absolutely amazing. It's a beautifully described poem, and the rhymes flow incredibly well. I must say that I'm impressed by the stanzas that are a, because it's very rare and hard, but you managed to do it wonderfully. It's a very lovely poem.

beautiful. this is really well done ^.^ i wish we had fireflies where i live... i am in awe of your rhyming skills. it is something i haven't been able to accomplish for a very very long time. i don't really know what to say (and my brain is fried because it's like 2am) but this is gorgeous. xoxo-xan
