Fireworks

With dusk fall, fireworks began capturing the eyes.
Shooting spears rose high shedding fluorescent hues.
 
Confetti of sparks in rainbow colours were sprinkled high, 
Etching scintillating designs on the panoramic sky. 

All eyes were riveted up, feasting on the wondrous array.
The crowd stood aghast at the pyrotechnic display.

You really captured the wonderful essence of a wonderful scene of awe and happiness Valsa. I was immediately taken back to our 4th of July location surrounded by kids and grandkids, so much fun :)

Excellent imagery, Valsa. I could feel the excitement in the crowd during the display. A beautiful Rhyme poem or could also be a Couplet poem. Your poet friend in Texas, Bill

Dear Valsa, You wrote a beautiful poem that captures the thrill and delight of a throng watching a sunset fireworks spectacular. It conjures up joy, celebration, and the transient beauty of fireworks. Pyrotechnics and audience perception are also discussed in the poem. The images honor pyrotechnics and inspire awe.
