I feel like the fireflies in an astonishing nightfall
Luminescing the lives of the travellers
Who crosses the path in the journey of life.

Not a small feat this. Firefly can't compete with sun but the mission and the spirit it symbolises is the best thing that can happen to those who are condemned to live in darkness. Thanks.

A masterpiece! The best of yours that I have ever read! Dear poetess, your wondeful three liner is luminescing in my memory as fireflies. Remembering the paths that I used to take after nightfall in our village, while visiting our grandparents, escorted by the twinkling fireflies. In my mother tongue Bangla, there is a superb poem written by an Indian poet on fireflies. The poem is embedded in me.

I too feel like you, as you said you do, 'like the fireflies in an astonishing nightfall'. Loved the philosophy of the poem, and the thoughts it evoked in my mind while I was reading it. This poem gets 10/10 from me.

A beautiful wish! In a dark night even a firefly can dispel some darkness! We may not be able to brighten the whole world with our blazing brilliance, but we can be small sparks of light to brighten the lives around us. Very profound thoughts compressed in just three lines!

Be enlightened like a firefly deep in the heart and show the way to the dark world in the light আলোকিত হও হৃদয়ের গভীরে জোনাকির মতো; আর সে আলোতে দেখাও পথ অন্ধকার জগতে
