Fireworks

With booms and wheezes The fireflies it teases With sizzles and cracks We remember our anger of tax With smoke and lights We remember our rights Children scream with fear and joy This is greater than any toy We hope with all this sound Nothing will burn to the ground With the sky ablaze Even the stars glaze With red and green Filled with its mighty sheen And orange and white That makes my heart feel tight And with blue and teal Which reminds me of my zeal And with purple and gold My awe is sold And all other colors, old and new I will always see the red, white, and blue
