Third World War

My thought was the third world war had begun

   Fireworks plagued our 'hood by the megaton

      I placed earplugs in my ears

         As neighbors hailed the New Years

            I in blissful sleep let them have their fun

Regina Elliott Date: 2/4/2024 2:50:00 AM Hi Robert, we heard fireworks late New Year's Eve in our neighborhood too. But, they quieted down sooner than they did on the 4th of July. If our dogs are inside they won't bark at them. You pen well. All the best to you in 2024. ~ Login to Reply Robert L. Hinshaw Date: 2/4/2024 6:27:00 AM Thanks for you kind comments, Regina. That's about the way it went in our 'hood for New Years eve. Ear plugs helped! All quiet on the western front but cold and snowy here in Colorado - Best to you for the New year - BobH
