Poet Analysis

First Line: A LITTLE LIGHT IS GOING BY
Last Line: AND MADE TO GO ON WINGS.
Subject(s): FIREFLIES; IMAGINATION; GLOWWORMS; FANCY;

A little light is going by,
Is going up to see the sky,
A little light with wings.

I never could have thought of it,
To have a little bug all lit
And made to go on wings.
