Sparklers

A sparkler in the night A silver stick of stardust Sparkling with flashing light With a dash of delight. A silver stick of stardust Coloured flowers Ignite With a dash of delight. Rotating bursts of light Coloured flowers Ignite Sparkling with flashing light Rotating bursts of light A sparkler in the night. 06.1.2021. Syllable count: 6 per line. Sponsor: Eve Roper.
