Fiery Hues

Fireworks explode in the night sky Splendid hues then fade in a flash Stars twinkle a distant reply As fiery hues come to a crash Splendid hues then fade in a flash Celestial fireflies twinkling flight As fiery hues come to a crash Amazing colors that delight Celestial fireflies twinkling flight Stars twinkle a distant reply Amazing colors that delight Fireworks explode in the night sky 1-5-2021 Fireworks Poetry Contest Sponsor: Eve Roper

a belated congrats. I come here and don't see new poems too often, so then i look for something I've not congratulated yet. Glad you won in the contest.

Everyone loves a fireworks display but it scares our pets. A fine piece. God Bless, JB

"Celestial fireflies in flight" I have never thought of Fireworks in this way. Such a beautiful image you paint. I am smiling. :) Brandy

Great imagery of fireworks you created in this hard to execute form, Joseph---especially in short lines. All the best.
