Eveningshade Poem by John Myshkoff

Eveningshade



Just a hint,
Of orange tendrils
Tint the darkening sky.
It wasn't July,
Yet the first
Of countless fireflies appeared.
Puzzling that,
Only a handful,
Perhaps not enough to be noticed,
Were about.
How could they know
Signaling...blinking...searching
For prospective mates
Would not end well.
