Take a Bow
I noticed the lightning
bugs at the edge of the street
raising up over dew-kissed grass to greet us
while we sat at picnic tables with our
beers and pops and stories
lifting glasses to croon along to tunes
we knew from back in the day,
singing with the band as the sky
lowered a curtain of darkness
around our swaying shoulders.

Such a nice moment nicely rendered. Makes me wish I’d been there.
Beautiful picture of a special time – I especially like the “beers and pops and stories”
Love the ending image
