FIREFLIES
In the early hours of a summer's eve,
the dark is a-light with magic.
Children playing hide-and-seek,
illuminated by the light of a silvery moon.
The momentary pin-point of light,
breaks the darkness.
The children's interest is peaked,
as they run to find mason jars.
The fireflies are back!
Lighting the dark with magic!
