Fireflies

It's a song by Owlcity. Heard of it? It's awesome :)
The title reminded me of the thing itself. I miss them.
My 1st encounter with the lantern of the night was when there was a powercut.
My family and i will normally sit on the swing next to the silent pond (pump got stopped) and just talk about random stuff.
And then i saw one. I thought it was a trick of my eyes..(when i was younger i see funny swirling shiny dust in the dark..is that normal lol)

i saw it again at another time when i was just about to sleep.
I managed to cup it in my hands, watching it with fascination.
I was sad to let it go..but i knew i had to.
The winking light flew up to a tree.
That was the last time i saw one. God knows how many years ago was that..about ten?

I'l make sure i'l treasure every moment with it the next time i meet a firefly.
