The Gentle Firefly Poem by Ruta Mohapatra
The Gentle Firefly
The Gentle Firefly
I lay in the dark
Inside the mosquito net
Waiting for sleep to come
And my eyelids to set
The gentle firefly
Entered the room
Its' blinking light
Dispelled the gloom
I silently wondered
As I followed its' flight
How good it would be
To have my own light
(Ruta Mohapatra)
The gentle firefly Entered the room Its' blinking light Dispelled the gloom I silently wondered As I followed its' flight How good it would be To have my own light.......such a nice poem in simple words.. you express your great desire to have your own light like the firefly. just simply liked this poem and your powerful imagination and thoughts. tony
A fascinating brief poem! Appreciated the beauty of expression!
A beautiful message that as a metaphor goes deeper than the obvious. I too often wish I had my own light to guide me in the darkness. Well done
You are lighting our hearts with lovely poems Rutaji..you have invisible light already given by the creator.
I lay in the dark Inside the mosquito net Waiting for sleep to come....wonderful scene! !
A delightful poem! This is especially fascinating to me because there are no fireflies where I live. I have never seen one. Ruta, you do have your own light. Wherever you go, your inner light is always illuminating other people.
