The Dance Of The Fireflies

Brilliant lights flickering bright,
Neon colors brighten the night,
Shards of emeralds, shine in the sky,
I love to watch, in the grass as I lie.

Sun goes down, moon has her chance,
The fireflies wake up, they begin their dance.
I love to observe the show they put on,
I'll watch them happily, till the approaching dawn.

Greeneyes appease my

Greeneyes appease my heart, Great soothing words lure me, Flies that emit green light Nocturnal but cools the mind, Pitch dark is pierced by twinkle The same is you, dear poet. Best wishes
