5th November

Animals hate this night,
Keep them safe inside,
The fireworks are going bang,
The smell of them fills the air,
Bonfire burning bright sparks crackling and spitting,
Stand well back,
The children squeal with delight,
With parents holding their hands tight,
All watching with care,
Sparklers in hand fizzing and popping,
Its bonfire night,
Remember your amimals though,
They shake with fear while finding somewhere to hide,
Stay with them comfort them this night,
They need you more than you watching the fireworks

The worst part is watching antique wood go up in flames on the bonfire! Aloha! Rico
