This poem is like a rose-brief yet beautiful! The last lines flashes the real philosophy [Let there be a..million fireflies to illuminate the darkness of our minds...in our lives’ voyage indeterminate.] In the journey of our life we meet joys and sorrows, sunshine and shadows but can chase away the blues, like fireflies do with darkness.10+++

Today evening when I was driving by the country side, I happened to notice these fireflies moving fast by a bush on the sides of a lake. I just wondered a second and forgot completely.The wordings 'Too fast to pinpoint where they are' is just absolute. A very keen observation. The Poem goes a step further and ends on a beautiful note saying 'Let there be a million fireflies to illuminate the darkness of our minds'. Simple things also make a lot of sense. Isn't it?
