have yet to actually see a firefly, but it's amazing that such a creature can emit light, and show the way... i would really like to see one... well, but the city is so bright sometimes, looking out of my window, i see the lights of city, the buildings at shenton way, the suntec city, millenia walk, the capital towers... sometimes i do yearn to be in the city bright lights, sometimes, i just wish that i'd be in the city of darkness... and surrounding me would be the deep quiet nature, buried in the vast serenity... take a deep breath, feel the moisture in the air, the trees breathing, the flowers blossoming, the fireflies are the only ones to lead my way... stare up in the sky -- u'll see the bright bright stars up in the sky... welcoming u into the dark world... i really miss those bright stars, the silence in the air, and coexisting in the silence will be fantastic! i guess fireflies are just like the stars, they're always there for us... but urbanisation has made the world so bright, so unwelcoming for them... that they don't show up for us...
when will i get to see the stars and the mysterious fireflies?
“Look, O look, there go
Fireflies,” I would like to say –
But I am alone.
