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.
