Summer Lights
Endless delight
as songs of
time
wing their way
into
our minds and hearts
All the while, a moth sits waiting
outside our window
Let's get up and dance!
Dancing will lead us to freedom
Songs will show us the way
Moths are attracted
to light
We're attracted to sounds, light, and the promise of a better day
We'll fly like the moth around our lightbulb
cutting through the torrid atmosphere
seeking peace
on a summer evening
Before you drift off to dreamland I will ask you
Did you notice the fireflies
glowing in our garden?
