Catch a firefly while you may
For the light diminishes every day
Jump in the water with a laugh or a cheer
Or float along quietly with someone who's dear
Count every star in the bright, moonlit sky
While listening to crickets trill their quaint lullaby
Kick off your shoes and walk on the beach
The castle you build will be well within reach
Bask in the glory and warmth of the sun
Or dance in the rain, just for the fun
Catch a firefly while you may
For the light diminishes every day
