Such a lovely poem! The author's words are descriptive, clear and creative.
I thought about the fireflies and how they really do sparkle! The poem flows and connects well. The artwork is awesome and compliments these
words. Hope you are having a great week!.....Maria

This is wonderful, Marival. I loved it. The imagery is so vivid. I could just imagine it.
'flutter amidst dewy reeds': I loved that line. So well thought out. Thanks so much for sharing. Ulla:)))

Beautiful and peaceful image, as always, you are a master in short and deep descriptions, dear poet. I like the sense of serenity in your short lines. Your choice of artwork is perfect. I wish you the best in this popular contest.

I have never seen a firefly and the scene must be magical and sparkly and like a fairytale fantasy, especially among the blossom, much enjoyed, love Dolly x

GBR,

Do like your overall presentation. Another exceptional illustration is paired with your verse.

I can see how spotlight takes on a certain nuance, but IMHO, given your artwork, moonlight might be an alternative.

Ah, I did not know that a group of fireflies is called a sparkle, but it makes sense now that I know.

Great job with this, gypsy. The entire scene plays out with vivid brightness. :))
