the fireflies


The fireflies
In the night the children could find
In those years in the village
Catching it for the light

The night of dark
Candles lighted up
The children played hide and seek
Some would catch the fireflies

The sound of children
The shrieks when found
The echo in the night
The shadowy figures glowed

Playing games hiding behind trees
Without fear of snakes or other insects
In the village life was spent freely
And the fireflies
