Verse 1 Boom, crackes, and whistles sharpen the air The night sky erupts with a sudden flare Glittering sparks and showers of light Illuminate the night, so very bright

Verse 2 Pretty blues and oranges enthrall the eye Visions of beauty amaze passersby Red, green, and yellow shimmering hues Fills up the night sky with vibrant views

Verse 3 The sweet smell of gunpowder, sharp and pungent Fills the air with an aroma ardent, Mixing with smoke, billowing and light Our nostrils with pleasure delight

Verse 4 The ground tremors, bells and chimes, Enchanting the hearts of all at this time The heat spreads on everyone’s cheeks Feeling a warmth no one ever seeks

Verse 5 Thoughts of the New Year, what it will bring A chance to forget the past, to start afresh and sing A promise of hope, a rally of cheer A reminder that every new year is another fresh start.
