My little eyes wide open
in that warm summer night,
eagerly looking around
waiting for the illusive fireflies.
Minutes passed,
hours gone,
no sign of the twinkling bugs,
only crickets competing horns.
Disappointed
I was heading home,
suddenly
I saw the twinkles of illusive lights
Dancing in the dark summer night,
here they were
Like fairies from the magical side
Like shooting stars
when lovers are looking into the sky
Like smiles in your eyes
and twinkles in mine.
"Fireflies"
