In blind darkness
And starless nights
Fireflies as sparks
Of hope
Lights the dreams
And guides the lost...
They linger
Not as the stars
But as light on wings
As flying embers
And fragile glimmers
Amid the dark...
Life like fireflies
Dim the night
For a little while
And then flicker away
At the first light of dawn
In their quiet glow
Don't reach the skies
But they light my room
With their sparks
And make the most
Of a very dark night
However dim the glow
However brief the show
Fireflies lights little spaces
And even with their small beams
They leave their mark
On the dark....
They teach me to glow
Even in the shadows
To fly in the skies
Emulating the stars...

I really enjoyed this poem and the imagery you used for the fireflies. I never really considered the hope that they inspire. Especially when they come out as it's just getting dark. Nice write.
I'm glad you did enjoy it!
Thank you very much 🙏
