Bonfire Night

Sky lightening up flares and flashes arching high above Pretty sparklers in kids gloved hands waving circling Loud bangs from rockets as they explode showering multi bands of colour Catherine wheels spinning round a visual delight Guy on top of bonfire soon is well ablaze warming cold hands Display now done kids head for bed to dream of it again
