They’re outside

sparks of yellow, of white

out in my backyard

they’re outside in the grass

full of shadows

of wonder and sparkles

setting the yard afire

I caught a lightning bug

in a glass jar

we played in the dark

by its faint light

they’re outside

in the grass

in my backyard

they’re, outside, caught, bug, played
