Beautiful display
lightning bugs by Willie P. Smith

 
A winding river
Is a beautiful sight,
When lightning bugs
Flash their tail light.
 
They hover 
over the river flow
When night falls,
They start their glow.
 
They're not seen
During the day
When the light shows 
They go away.
 
Do they go away,
Or do they stay?
Not being seen
By light of day.
 
When I was young,
I watched with delight
As the lightning bug
Lit the river at night.
 
Now I read
With dismay,
The lightning bug
Is going away.
