Fireflies

Okay, here's how this is going to work. ShiningNShadows and I are going to be hosting this contest together. We are looking for some good writes. This contest will be slightly different than other contests. You will not be writing your own poem.

YOUR CHALLANGE: I am looking to add to my poem "Fireflies" and don't know what I want to add. Now, this is where you come in. What I want you to do is:
~* Read "Fireflies": http://allpoetry.com/poem/2292935.
~* Write something that will mesh well with what I've already got written.

THE RULES:
~* Do not write using sTiCkY cApS, ALL CAPS or chat speak. It is not necessary.
~* No erotica or cussing. Neither one is necessary for this contest and using either will earn you an automatic DQ.
~* Entries must be 1 stanza in length.
~* The stanza must stay between 4 and 6 lines. If it is good, I MIGHT allow 7 or 8 lines to pass, but it had better be good.
~* Keep to the rhyme scheme I've already got.
~* Title your entry as "Fireflies Stanza #__".
-- If your stanza should go before my current first stanza, you would put a 1 in the blank.
-- If your stanza should go between my current 2 stanzas, you would put a 2 in the blank.
-- If your stanza should go after my current second stanza, you would put a 3 in the blank.
~* Put your username or a link to your page in your ANs so I will know what name to put in the "Collaborate With" section.
