Adverb poem - Brightly

Brightly the fire burns in the hearth, of the home 

where the children are sleeping quietly.

Brightly the moon shines in the night, above the loam

where the grass is soughing in the wind gently.

Brightly the cat’s eye glows yellow at night.

Before it winks shut, it turns green slowly.

Brightly  and  spread out are the city’s lights

that look like fireflies shimmering softly. 

Brightly the sun sends its blessings from its heights

to the land down below, and then blazes hotly.

Brightly the stars glint before sleep closes one's eyes

and dreams come to chase us in its meadows, playfully.
