Katie Firecracker


Katie Firecracker jumps the flowerbeds,
a Fourth of July parade of her own,
sparklers in each hand, barefoot free,
ponytail flying and new teeth smiling.
She good mornings our shadows below
to laugh them awake into a dance
and the clouds follow her songs
to spell out our names into the above.

Thank you! I had found the picture and liked the effects of the sparkler.
