Speaking of Holiday Rockets, I hope you had a happy and safe 4th! For as simple and sparse as this style is, the carefully chosen words are full of impact and creates a vivid scene.

Holiday
Shooting rockets
Flags unfurled
Bright blast away
Nighttime revel
Ignites dark world
Night patriotic display

A really good Whitney Tom and a nice picture too. You are quite talented with that camera.

Celebrations of a wonderful, national holiday expressed utilizing great visual images, my favourite: "Bright blast away".
Darkness certainly highlighted with outstanding fireworks!

Well, it sure is a long weekend for you. Good photograph. Kids use to love rockets, cherry bombs and sparklers when I was young. I was scared of the stuff. Great poem. Good form. Excellent.
