Firefly

I met a firefly one night
We soared to the greatest heights
It brushed my cheek 
And settled on a blade of grass

I put it in a jar on a twig
This didn't feel right so I removed the lid  
It was used to jar living 
And chose to stay inside

Soon in the field I was playing again  
With dozens of fireflies around my head
This time I'd give none a glance
But hurried off to bed
