Fireflies (competition....no A's allowed) <br /> <br /> <br />In the bottom of the mouldy well, <br />in Uncle Ivors field, <br />just over the boggy dell, <br />behind the old sun shield, <br />secret surprises lurk within, <br />you must be very quiet, <br />but go there in the evening, <br />for then you won't deny it. <br /> <br />For the fey ones come out in the dusk, <br />with their symphony of twinkling lights, <br />joining the burnt twilight scent of musk, <br />profusions of fireworks for this most wondrous of nights. <br /> <br />So, stroll with me, returning home, <br />mix the memories onto the smile. <br />Just remember, tis uncommon for some, <br />they'll surely be gone the while. <br />We were lucky tonight my friend, <br />indeed blessed, for this surprise, <br />will undoubtedly show the end, <br />of the time we were visited by fireflies.<br /><br />Jazzy Davies<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/fireflies-2/
