fireflies
against the dark of night little sparks of light
flying through the air catch them with care
giggle for its fun to chase about and run
children enjoy play flying glitter bugs display
release them free into the night breeze
sparkle with their glow on and off they go
tiny stars divine sputtering light as they shine
up to the heavens beyond reach them in a song
summers of long ago feel them as you grow old
watch your child delight catching fireflies at night
