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.

Beams of Hope

The fireworks cast spells in my eyes,

Sound of happiness and excitement

Shot up in the air.

I wasn't scared but actually intrigued.


Little ol me was satisfied to see,

Something as small as me

Shoot up and beam so brightly.

Taking my breath away

And allowing me to see what was possible.


The fireworks were a sign of hope.

Hope and joy, spread around me and

projected throughout my body.


Anchored to the grass, I see what happens

when you don't hesitate or dim.

You roar, and become something beautiful.

Something worth watching.
