Like fireworks, we ignite the skies
With hopes and dreams, and how’s and why’s
As radiant lights, we guide our hearts
Through thoughts and words, we must impart
Scattering about, with a certain flair
Watching, waiting, not knowing where
Eventually falling, back to the ground
Messages sent, are quite profound
With a thundering boom, we get your attention
Oh, the OOHs and AAHs, did I forget to mention?
That fireworks are a lot like you and I
Trying hard not to fizzle, when they die
June Writing Prompt – And then we all fizzled – Day 10/30

And when we die
Our hopes and dreams
And how’s and why’s
Will show us Heaven
So high in the sky
