The Firework Poem by Anna C Croft

You were my firework
A beautiful, magical display
Of bright colours, flying high
Into the inky blackness of night
Filling the darkness with a simply
Awe-inspiring burst of multi-coloured sparks.
Making me gasp and laugh
Filling me with wonder and delight
Leaving an imprint in my mind
When I closed my eyes.
Filling my senses until my head spun.

You were my firework
That fizzled out and fell to earth
And left my world in darkness
Like all those other fireworks before you.
