If You Catch a Firefly

If you catch a firefly
and keep it in a jar
You may find that
you have lost
A tiny star.

If you let it go then,
back into the night,
You may see it
once again
Star bright.

~Lilian Moore
From A Jar of Tiny Stars

(Impatiently awaiting the delivery of two of these for the Wendy House...)
