Colours flash,
And we look up expectantly at the sky.
The noise echoes,
And we count how long it takes to sound out.
Sparklers dance,
And we write our names in the darkness.
Fires burns,
And we gather as a street.
Gunpowder scent,
And we remember Guy Fawkes.
Gloves, hats, scarves,
And we are ready for the countdown.
Five...
Four...
Three...
Two...
One...
Happy Bonfire night!!
