Fireflies in jars

I don't want fireflies in jars    
to entertain me for hours;    
beautifying my night    
with their sparkling light,    
Dispelling darkness for me    
while their souls aren't free;    
bringing in magical dreams    
through their soft soothing beams.
These pretty luminous things
are meant to measure world
with their wings...
