Poem in Response

Having read “Magic Lamp“, written by my close friend, the lovely and talented Penny Granger – wherein she ponders the stunning beauty and short lifespan of fireflies – I was inspired to write this poem in response…

So many questions
Yet, there’s so little time
With answers revealed
In each mountain we climb

    1. Yes, the mountain awaits our presence, mio dolce amore, that we may climb together, taking hold of our dreams to reach each peak before us, with a magic firefly lighting our way. You’re always on my mind and in my heart, my darling lady, inspiring creativity and building my appreciation for you with each passing day.
