Hearing stories of great colors

Bright oranges and reds

Brilliant purples and blues

With heavenly yellows

For the first time

He sits in jubilation

And is quite and waiting

For loud explosions of color

And the amazing spectacles of the night

He waits, silent

Hearing stories of the past

He grows and becomes untamed

A loud shot rises

An explosion, and the amazing show begins

He cheers in jubilation

His expectations exceeded

More and more, firework after firework

Until the ending

The spectacle that lights the night sky

And instantly turns the blacks of night to day

It comes, he cheers

A piece of light changes him

From hating all things

To loving beauty and grace
