Firefly

Forgotten jewels
somewhere in time
long ago fairy folk
danced in a forest glade
trying in vain to catch
these tiny lanterns of the night
these elusive fireflies
now gone forever...

Valerie - I just read a poem the other day about fireflies - I guess now I'm just confused - Are they gone for ever or still in multitude at some regions - Either way both poems were wonderful - God Bless
