Bernardo F. Asuncion Poet Quatrain

A Twinkling Tree

A tree twinkles one summer night
Fireflies turn on the evening light
Without sorrows, without wrinkles
One summer night, a tree twinkles

The flashes rule the dark shadows
Without wrinkles, without sorrows
Delightful view, distant from fuel
The dark shadows, the flashes rule

In gentle air, away from blue 
Distant from fuel, delightful view
These bugs display lightning fun flare
Away from blue in gentle air

Lightweight lanterns, near quiet quay
Lightning fun flare, these bugs display
Spark ignited as mangrove burns
Near quiet quay, lightweight lanterns
