Firefly Light

Firefly in the night,
growing dim, shining bright.

Sending messages, in insect code,
come and stay at my abode.

Flying here, flying there,
making art upon the air.

A beam of light, within the dark,
an ember glowing, like a spark.

Hypnotic visions, all aglow,
help me see your jagged flow.

Flights of fancy, are what I see,
as you continue, endlessly.

Until the dawn, grants you rest,
your endless dance, shows your quest.

  1. John, reading your poem was like a breeze.

    I was in the flow from the first word. I also watched a firefly and found that the poem was a true reflection.

    Would you let me copy it and put it on my Facebook with explicit credit given to you?

    1. Yes, you can create a copy on your Facebook page with proper attribution. Make sure that you include the copyright notice for the poem and a link back to my blog.
