 Fireworks

The night sky alive with the sound

Of booming colours lit,

Showers

Its impermanence though not found

Distinguishable fit

Flowers


It is more spectacle than awe,

Keeps the eyes peeled skyward,

Even

Curiosity of night law,

Colours drift and award

Heaven.

Stars in the planetarium,

As they whirled overhead, 

Awesome.

Viewed in yester millenium,

What a dynamic spread,

For some.


Fishes in the aquarium,

How lovely they all said.

Buy some,

And also an anthurium

For the vase by the bed,

Saw some
