Firefly

Take my hand
give it life
never let it go.
Always, keep it safe.
Light my path,
let it be you.
In the day
in the night
to give me sight,
always, make me alright.
When you fly away
carry me with you.
Love me by golden sunrise
love me by silver moonlight.
Consume me, kind fire
always, my angel
steal me to your heavenly end.

by Connie Mutua
