the fireflies


In the night of trees
Fireflies flying in the moonlight
The lights shining in the night
The group of children run and smile

They catch the fireflies
Put it in the bottles
They take it to the dark corner
Watching the glow at night

The sight of it
The fireflies glow
The group of children smile
Watching as if magic in the flow

Nobody says a word
They all concentrate on the show
The fireflies light up the night
The shadows dance with the light

When the parents call
The children quickly run home
Leaving the bottles of fireflies
Glowing in the dark of the night
