bellabella @dabbe, YES! @TheSpineView, great haiku. I love lightning bugs. Question for everyone. Lightning bugs or Fireflys? 5mo

dabbe @bellabella We tend to say “firefly“ out here in the ol' rugged west. 🤣 5mo

lil1inblue This brings me back! We don't tend to get lightning bugs here, but I loved catching them as a kid. 💛 5mo

Kristy_K Reminds me of my childhood! 💛 5mo

AnnCrystal Fireflies! 🤩 Wish we had them here! Brilliant 👏🏼🐝👍🏼🪲🔦🐝👍🏼. 5mo

julieclair Love this! 5mo

julieclair @bellabella As a kid growing up in New Jersey, we called them lightning bugs. They were such fun! 5mo

bellabella @julieclair New Jersey?! I've never been there, but I'd love to visit that state once. 😍 5mo

bellabella @dabbe Nice! It's changed for me several times over my childhood and over the past few years.I feel like because I'm Midwestern I just say whatever the people around me are calling them. 😂 5mo

bellabella @TheSpineView @AnnCrystal @lil1inblue It's so interesting how everyone calls them differently based on where they live. 5mo

BooksandCoffee4Me I‘ve always called them fireflies, but I‘ve only seen them once on a camping trip as a kid. Enjoy them, everyone — do kids really catch them in jars and will they light inside? (Sorry, LA born and raised means I‘m kind of ignorant about some of the fun nature things). 5mo

Eggs Love this haiku and image - magic!! We love the fireflies in Texas ✨ 5mo

SaunteringVaguelyDownwards Grew up in PA and called them fireflies - live in NJ now!
Y'all will appreciate this interactive poem my Intro to Lit students loved - “Yardley, PA 1997“ by Todd Anderson: https://toddwords.com/hotwriting/inthedark/ 5mo

TheSpineView @BooksandCoffee4Me Yes, YES!! It was one of my favorite things to do as kids. My Mom had a 'special' mason for me to use. It had holes in the lid so they got air. 5mo

Reggie This is lovely. 5mo

dabbe @bellabella 🎯🩵🎯 5mo

DebinHawaii I‘ve never lived where fireflies are common & I‘ve always regretted it! Beautiful! 💛🐝🖤 5mo
