POEM STARTER
Write a poem through the eyes of a child, capturing their wonder at a fireworks display.
In the absence of elaborate and highly descriptive language, think how else you can capture an atmosphere of wonder.
pretty fire
bang, bang, BANG
hands over ears
why is it so loud?
"Open your eyes, Darling"
mama takes my hands
wow...
so many rainbows in the sky!
but so loud...
my breathing shakes and i sniff my runny nose
"loud mama"
mama smiles with pretty teeth and covers my ears
the rainbows pop and glitter
"Those are fireworks, Sweetie."
fire works!
"f-fire?"
"Good fire"
"pretty fire"
