One must always remember the safety rules when using fireworks of any kind even those known as Sparklers the ones that you can hold. My favorites were Snakes, poppers, and Sparklers for I remember trying to write my name with them in the air before they went out. Never made it though for they always died out way too soon. Fireworks are fun though, but once a year is enough for me.

Our Flag
What does it mean to fly the flag? The flag is the symbol for enduring freedom for all. Flying the flag on the Fourth of July, Flag Day or any other patriotic day shows that one cares for their country and to those who have served to protect it from invaders. The flag that shows in its' stars and stripes how proud we citizens are for what we have. The flag is a symbol of honor, so let it fly high in the sky.

B. A. Durham’s False Memories blends dream and reality in a seamless mix. As his father, afflicted by Alzheimer’s, fades away, the narrator is haunted by a dream that may be a memory, returning to him insistently. The piece is full of wonderful detail (the father touching his lip where once there was a mustache, “but now he is clean-shaven—he has been for years” — and moving in revealing the complexities of a family’s life. A worthy winner which shows the power of dreams to influence us.

Nice! I Love fireworks and the expressions of awe coming from the grandkids.😊💕❤️
Omgggg, I used to write my name with those too! Gosh I miss those days. Loved your Acrostic!
I love the choice of words in this little acrostic, especially "a rather kaleidoscopic sparkling of color". Great work, Mark!
