FIREFLY



FIREFLY
(to any one who has been in doubt or afraid)

by Audrey H. Kumordjie
From a distance I thought it would burn
Was so afraid to touch lest I be consumed
Then I got close and couldn’t believe
Such a small creature with so much shine
I touched and it was so fragile I was afraid its light will die
So I put it in a jar
And watched from afar
All the brightness it could produce
For it was created to be admired.
