FIREFLIES
BY
CHIP FESKO
Light dancers of the night,
How you sparkle so.
And when the evening’s over,
I know not where you go.
Backed up by tunes of crickets,
You danced throughout the air,
One moment right in front of me,
The next, you just weren’t there.
You, I would chase for hours,
Trying to fill my jars.
And when set free inside my room,
My room was filled with stars!
