Living Lantern
by Emory D. Jones
Fireflies sparkled like twinkling stars—
we called them lightning bugs.
on a summer evening
we chased them across the yard—
shouting, laughing,
clapping hands,
running them down,
closing our hands around them,
pouring them into a fruit jar until
we made a living lantern.
