On Summer Passing





Nothing remains
Of the house that I was born in--
Fireflies.

Santoka, 1882-1940

I like the sense of nostalgia in the poem and the photo. Warm summer nights carry many of my fondest memories.

Yeah, it seemed perfect for this time of year, when those nights are just about gone.
