Happy Fourth of July!

I wanted to take a moment to wish everyone a Happy Fourth! I know this is one of America’s illustrious holidays, and I should be thanking someone and celebrating our country. I’m going to leave that to everyone else. Instead, I thought it would be fun to do a little poem. Without further ado, here’s:

 

Oh, the Fireworks

Fizzle
Whiz
Skitter, skat
Pop, Bang
Spectacular splat

Red and white
Don’t forget blue
Bursts of color
Remarkable hue

Fizzle
Whiz
Skitter, skat
Pop, Bang
Penultimate splat

Glowing faces gaze up
Hearts thrumming
Eyes feasting
Ears ringing

Fizzle, pop, bang
Whiz, skitter, skat
Blam, crackle, boom
Final thunderous splat
