No one knows when they will go, But they all hear the booming BOOF, The explosion of joy so grand, As the sky lights up like the back of a hand.

Brilliant colors that no one can ignore, Illuminating the nighttime sky galore, The sight of beauty that captures our view, A dreamlike show of whites and blues.

The smell of smoke floods in the air, Creating a sense of feeling so rare, Aromatic fumes of color display, Little whiffs of love lead the way.

An overpowering atmosphere of awe, Where each person has something to show, An emotive display that stirs the heart, Excitement makes the occasion so smart.

A hope for the future and what it may bring, A chance to be open and new beginnings, Unlocking the doors of this new year, The fireworks we watch have no fear.
