When I Caught a Firefly
On a day filled with lots of camping
Spirits and darkness is falling down
And fireflies are out
I see a firefly
Fluttering about
I run and run
I feel a breeze
I try to catch a firefly
I run. I jump.
I clap my hands.
I feel a tickle
I caught a firefly!
I tell my Mom.
She does not believe me.
I show my Mom.
She gasps
“You did!” she said.
I tell my friends
My Daughter's hand at poetry
Momma's so proud ♥
firefly's flicker
is no match
for the light in your eyes

ReplyDelete@Me: Isn't it lovely! She wanted me to print it off & is working on a book now. Her sister is the budding artist in the house creating picture books on a daily basis at school. I bet they will both be published before Mama at this rate!
