You would not believe your eyes
If ten million fireflies
Lit up the world as I fell asleep
'Cause they'd fill the open air
And leave teardrops everywhere
You'd think me rude, but I would just stand and stare
I'd like to make myself believe
That planet Earth turns slowly
It's hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep
'Cause everything is never as it seems
'Cause I'd get a thousand hugs
From ten thousand lightning bugs
As they try to teach me how to dance
A fox-trot above my head
A sock-hop beneath my bed
A disco ball is just hanging by a thread
I'd like to make myself believe
That planet Earth turns slowly
It's hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep
'Cause everything is never as it seems
Leave my door open just a crack
'Cause I feel like such an insomniac
Why do I tire of counting sheep?
When I'm far too tired to fall asleep
To ten million fireflies
I'm weird 'cause I hate goodbyes
I got misty eyes as they said farewell
But I'll know where several are
If my dreams get real bizarre
'Cause I saved a few, and I keep them in a jar
I'd like to make myself believe
That planet Earth turns slowly
It's hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep
'Cause everything is never as it seems
I'd like to make myself believe
That planet Earth turns slowly
It's hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep
'Cause everything is never as it seems
I'd like to make myself believe
That planet Earth turns slowly
It's hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep
Because my dreams are bursting at the seams
I love the way the reflections of the outside lights seem to be sparks, or maybe fireflies, emanating from the dancer inside.

Firefly is Pyxis' nickname for Ehsan. He always says Ehsan is his lovely little firefly, bringing joy and light everywhere he goes.
I just love the sea and while I may not swim as often as I'd like
I love to be near it . . . there is something just so calming and soothing about it.
I especially love this pic . . . the silky smooth almost satin like ripples of the water and the little tiny golden sparkles of sun that Ray said look like fireflies.
You can hear them calling you. The firefly souls whisking about like specks of dust in the moonlight. They whirl and dance and beg you to join them. Ever deeper into the forest they beguile and sing and whisper that you are welcome, you are here, and you will never be alone again... so long as you stay, stay with them, and play and forget the waking world you've left behind.
The flashes of fireflies on a warm summer night remind many of us of our carefree childhood sense of wonder. Reminding us of the love and carefree we once were. Taken at maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Miller%20Creek/132/164/25

I've photographed bioluminescence in plankton, fungi and glowworms before, but I had never photographed fireflies until this evening! Another photographer friend found these fireflies on the Gold Coast last night, so I went for a drive this afternoon to try and find them. To create this image I combined 4 x 10 second exposures with a 35mm lens at f/2 and 1600 iso. The species is probably Atyphella scintilans.
