Fire Flies – Poem by Lola Hornof

Pitch black night,

Sitting in a field,

Surrounded,

All around,

Fireflies dance and glow,

Making their brilliant luminescence,

Fun to guess where they will appear,

Little flashlights,

Simple pleasures,

Watching nature,

Deep at night,

Seeing nature’s creatures light up the night,

Another natural wonder,

Catching one,

Gently,

Glowing in my hand,

Tickling my palm,

Let it fly away,

Little flashing creature,

Gone to light up the night sky,

What a marvelous night,

Spent with fireflies.
