Delightful to see a trio of firefly haiku!
Bob Carlton's verse is fun using an elipsis in a concrete approach.
I love Charlie Mehrhoff's concluding "an echo of the sun," brilliant!
And David Lanoue's translation is masterful, uncaught, then uncaught again, catching the spirit of the fireflies. Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful!

Cheers, Alan ... all are particularly strong ...
Nice one, Terri ... a couple more holes in the lid maybe?
