Fireworks – v2

Rockets red glare,

bombs bursting in air,

oh and the eardrums

them too – yup, bursting

A night of fire and foom

of shells that go boom

bright light and sudden arc

colors across the sky;

Flies in the light

of dusk to dark

and the rumble

of concussion, explosion

A spot on our blanket

to get the view

for a slice of pie

a la mode

to share a laugh or two

between the oohs and the ahhhs,

Not to mention the OHHs
