Barbara Barry-Nishanian Poet Pantoum

Fireworks

FIREWORKKS

    We desire firework excitement, from noise to smoky smell,
   watch them exploding into thousands, of glittering brilliant hues.
  Hear crackling, popping, booming, and yes, hearing ourselves yell,
  watch some spin in sparkling showers, of reds, purples, and blues.
  
   Watch them exploding into thousands, of glittering brilliant hues,
   observe some of them whistling, then exploding in the air.
 Watch some spin in sparkling showers, of reds, purples, and blues,    
some tumble like a waterfall sparkles falling everywhere.

   Observe some of them whistling, then exploding in the air,
   hear crackling, popping, booming, and yes, hearing ourselves yell.
Some tumble like a waterfall sparkles falling everywhere,
   we desire firework excitement, from noise to smoky smell.

Judy Ball January 15, 2021 at 11:58 PM Very nicely done. Really good imagery. We all love to see fireworks but it scares our pets. Don't take them to the exhibition. Good stuff here. God Bless, JB Barbara Barry-Nishanian January 17, 2021 at 2:02 PM Wow, how did I miss your visit? Thank you Judy for visiting and enjoying my imagery. Thanks for the nice comment. Please stay safe.
