Excellence Award in the 'The Write Track 2015' competition
I bring the people together at last,
When I scatter my dazzling heart
Sparks fly from a colourful ball
Shimmer and shake, then flicker and fall
I fill the sky with a beautiful light
Painting the canvas of a warm summers night
The people gaze at the treasure they've found
At the same time wishing they weren't stuck to the ground
Families say a beloved goodbye
As the last firework explodes in the sky.
