Fireflies Twinkle

In flight, fireflies enchant
  As bright colors they grant

 The moon, in hues of gold
 In tune with tides to hold

 A star will wink in time
 And spar in skies sublime

 A glance at skies above,
 A dance to twinkle love

Such beautiful moments to behold. When fireflies or as some say- lightning bugs grace the night. I love watching them. Thank you for reminding me of these moments, the magic. :) Brandy

as victor says, and I agree, lovely in its simplicity. How I miss the Iowa fireflies I saw in my youth!
