Fireworks

The fireworks burst above the bay. Echoing off the mountains around me. I stood on the cliff watching in awe. Nothing but brilliant color in the sky. Life seemed distant, this moment I stood. Waiting for the grand finale to see. At the same time not wanting this to end. While living in a shining moment above me, Thoughts were ignited below the same way. This is life. Right here, right now. Heidi Sands
