Fireworks Over the Harbor

Boom– Pop – Pow – Rumble –

Flash– Sparkle – Ooh and Wow!

Glisteningoff the black harbor waters

Likeflames on a mirror to hypnotize.

 

Dazzlingthe gathering throng

Withmagical brilliance of wonderment

Infervent celebration of

Ourcherished nation’s dazzling rise.

 

Glintand glitter,

Flurryand flicker,

Therockets shrill shriek of dismay,

Theburst and the blaze of

Thefierce cannonade.

Howcan anyone dare walk away?

 

Weare rows of corn

Gazinginto the skies

Tothe rich psychedelic

Feastfor the eyes.

Andfantasy flourishes to extreme,

Upliftingthe soul…

Inspiringthe dream.
