This is an interesting picture. I have never seen so many lightning bugs in one place.
It would be cool to see them all among the leaves, so they look like lanterns.

Congrats on placing third in the contest.

Keep writing

fireflies.
Syllable count is right on and the presentation
is beautiful.
Good luck in the contest.

A very well-written Nonet poem about the fireflies putting up a light show at night to captivate the audience with their magic glow. Good luck with the contest.

While each successive line has one less syllable, it's very challenging to get the lines to "line up" in size as you've done making your poem more exceptional/unusual than the standard nonet. The topic is relatable and positive and the imagines seems to bring the "night lights" to life.

A traditional nine lines cum 9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1 syllable structure compliant Nonet Poetry Contest Entry that reminisces the glow of fireflies in the forest.

The work highlights the glowing embroidery of light emitted by the fireflies and how it bears a captivating effect on the protagonist.

The work earns its texture through the use of imagery and alliteration.

Excellent work! Keep the flag flying!

Beautiful artwork, a delight for the eyes.

You have crafted great nonet, in such a delicate story, which you tell with amazing, beautiful words, although I'll admit I only read precious few poems.

I wish I still had a six to give.
