Fireflies

we sit on the porch this evening
a beautiful summer night
linger after dinner
while watching the fireflies
sitting on the old porch swing
no place I'd rather be

smell the fresh mown grass
a cooling breeze that blows
look at the moon and stars
we swing and sit real close
watching the shadows grow
while fireflies light the sky
