The little yellow lights glistened
Outside the glass panes
In the shroud
Of the darkness around
Their fluorescent light
Almost cajoling one and all
To reach out
And captivate them
Making them your own
And bask in that
Sought after triumph
Like all those tiny fire flies
In the secure of your palms
But then, if only, ever
The candescence could be
Captured in its entirety
Perhaps, that's what is afterall
The most elusive virtue
Of any luminosity
For, as long as it is in view
The yearning remains
To conquer it
But when it is within
Its infinitude
Housed inside
Will remain inconspicuous
As always, as ever
