…on a summer night than catching lightning bugs with Daddy!


June30_CatchingLightningBugs_3

I love to watch the lightning bugs,
flying all around.
Blinking their lights all through the air
and sometimes on the ground.

I look at them in wonder,
as each does light the night.
Feeling like they’re part of me,
watching them in flight.

Now every summer I come to watch,
those bugs put on their show.
Flying high and flying low,
blinking, blinking as they go.
