This is a very beautiful and very well written haiku you have penned for the contest. I love it when I can see fireflies outside at night. They brighten things up for me. You used very good descriptive words and very nice imagery from the art work you chose. Blessings, Teri

This is well written. You could see and feel the fireflies.
I am sure it may remind people of their past encounters with fireflies at camping.
A lot of people like camping.
Thanks for sharing.

C2,
You have chosen a delightful picture to highlight the exciting energy of the fireflies in their brief spectacular show of courting activity which only happens once a tear. These little beetles light up the night sky like fairy lights, or 'sparks from a campfire'. It's just amazing.

Fireflies are one of the delights of a summer night. Unfortunately we don't have as many as I remember from years ago.
Lovely haiku. A joy to read.

Janet,
Thank you for reading my poem and for your kind review. They seem to be making a comeback at my lakehouse in East Texas. At least this summer I?ve seen quite a few. Hopefully a good sign!

In my opinion, a poem inspiring fond memories of camping days as a child and running and hopping with the fireflies near our campfire at night, before toasting marshmallows. Thank you for the memory, and best wishes in the contest with this one...

Comment from Pam Lonsdale
I love the "fireflies" that swirl above an outdoor fire - mesmerizing and peaceful. I think the alliterations give punch to the few words that you're allowed.
Thank you for taking me there with this lovely poem.

Comment from K.L. Rockquemore
This is a perfect example of a haiku, as it checks all of the boxes. You did a great job with the prompt, as this is a strong contest submission that I hope does well.
I find it creative that you were able to capture a moment in time using eleven carefully chosen words. The overall presentation works well, as the artwork adds a layer of dimension to your writing.

What beautiful artwork you chose for your writing. I loved chasing
fireflies when I was a kid. I loved the poem and never tire of Haiku poetry contests. It really brings out the talent in most of you.
