Fireflies in the Garden

Here come real stars to fill the upper skies,
And here on earth come emulating flies,
That though they never equal stars in size,
(And they were never really stars at heart)
Achieve at times a very star-like start.
Only, of course, they can't sustain the part.
Robert Frost
I think that in the first 2 lines he is saying that the real stars are coming, and that the fireflies that are on Earth look like them. Then I think that he is saying that the fireflies are not the same size as the stars but look the same.

Fireflies
Fireflies are a bug that has a tail that lights up.

The size of a firefly is about the same size of a paper clip. In the world there are about 2,000 species of fireflies. Many species can be found in places where it is damp and wet. The firefly is an omnivore which means that it eats meat and plants. In the wild the life time for a firefly is about 2 months. The firefly uses its tail for light and also as a defensive mechanism. A few days after mating the female firefly will lay the eggs on top or below the ground. The larvae are commonly known as glow-worms. Male fireflies are the only fireflies that associate in Synchronous flashing.

The Fireflies light will have almost no heat. In some of the world they call it the lightning bug.
