Come along and sit beside me
On this old porch swing,
The sun has set
And the denim sky fades to gray,
Hear the cricket's call
And nature snuggling into slumber,
Shall we count the fireflies?
For each one share a memory,
Or perhaps a secret fantasy,
Be it of the past or the future
Tonight we cast down our guard,
Or perhaps if that is too much
We can just sit and
Count the Fireflies
Count The Fireflies

I love this poem. So simply yet eloquently stated with a great style. Well done.
Thank you very much. It was actually inspired as I drove across town to drop off some library books and there were oodles of fireflies all over the place. Thankfully none smushed against my windshield.
