Fireflies Poem by Dr.Balnarayana Bandam

Are the flies which emits light
Generally, are being seen in the night
Are beautiful, cute and tiny shine
In nights and attracts, people happy assign
Have the power to glow in yellow color
Pale red and green from body's rear
Twinkle at night in the greenery like stars
Represent the light of God's devise bears
Like stars in the sky, are biogenic shine in bushes
Are with their beautiful colors and wander
This makes the people witness and wonder
There lays an Indian belief, catching the flies
And releasing them with a wish comes true arise
There are persons collecting the flies in jars
And enjoy the emitted light in the night as mars
Female often attract the innocent male
Deceivingly may eat and fill thy stomach assail
One may surprise the flies are beetle not flies
Are also called lightning bugs, Peene wallys
Better are the human who enjoys the bliss of God
Without hurting, but witnessing the power of Lord
