A darkening evening, I see green in the sky For the moonlight reflects The leaves from the tree limbs, tonight Flying above the grass, Firefly's delight Flames flicker through the shadowed trees I'm watching them tonight Ben.
Well, I titled it "Wanderlust" because I had this feeling of just wanting to get out and wander, and so I went out for a walk and I ended up staying out until dark. As I was going home, I walked by this street that connects to a plot of trees behind someone's yard. There also may be a creek somewhere in those woods as well. I have walked by the street many times but, the other night the inspiration for the poem just hit me out of the blue as it was getting dark. The entire street and everyhting around it just looked way different and then I saw the fireflys. The words just fell right into place. Thanks for the compliments! Later, Ben.
