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.
NOOOO
it was new year’s eve 2014 the fireworks would be starting soon
i was so excited i couldn’t even focus on my mom who was yelling at me cause i ate uncooked meat
“it wasnt finished !! i was gonna put it in the soup”
all i could see is the big red lever and not a sight of a permit
i couldnt help myself i ran over to the big red lever and pulled it towards me
“NOOOO”
my mom yelled but it was too late
i pulled the lever
and reached out to touch the fire
“NOOOO”
my dad yelled but it was too late
i touched the fire
it was exhilarating 
the fire truck came while i laughed my head off
they took my to the hospital but at least i got to eat chocolate cake at the hospital 😊
