fireflies

we sit on the porch this evening
a beautiful summer night
lingering after dinner
while watching the fireflies
sitting on the old porch swing
watching the night go by

smell the fresh cut grass
a cooling breeze that blows
look at the moon and stars
we swing and sit real close
while fireflies light the sky

watching the shadows grow
