Fireflies in the Backyard Entry

Hello everyone!

Those cold, winter months are finally behind us. Spring has hit with clouds of yellow-green and pretty flowers. The summer equinox is upon us and am feeling nostalgic. I used to think of a Southern summer as nothing but sort of magic. The sultry nights just sitting in a driveway or on a porch help capture the moment. Sometimes even a long walk in the heat cured all bad things. However, now I have mixed feelings about the season. Sometimes it’s too hot to do the things one really wants to do. One thing that still brings a smile is seeing those lightening bugs in the backyard against a blanket of navy blue. While I wouldn’t exactly want to fly near me, the sight is still pretty and simple. Reminds me of the days spent at church events, singing, ‘This Little Light of Mine.’

Not sure what the summer will bring for me this year. As of right now, there’s nothing definite with only a few wants of where to go locally. It’s okay though. Things will finally feel back to normal after all the fun having had.

All in all, summer is on it’s way and will soon be here to stay.
