ali's Corner. [Poetry: A Firefly Scene]

She checks a box
that says load the wash;
sits down to rest
and to gather her thoughts.

Eyes shining brightly
her hair is a mess;
dancing around lilies
stepping on her dress.

Torn letters fill her garden
falling from her hands;
that once held the riches
taken by every man.

Spinning in circles,
embraced by the light;
a tornado of freedom,
and a beautiful flight.

Evening sun warms her skin
in a firefly scene;
she lays down her body
now anchored and free.
