Your poem brings back fond memories of celebrating Guy Fawkes as a child. The big community bonfire and all the neighbors kids oohing and aahing at the fountains of color and sparks from Roman Candles and Catherine Wheels. The sky rockets were exciting to light and watch. And the horror of being chased by a jumping jack added to the fun.

Thanks for your amusing comment of reminiscence. Amidst all the fun, there was some danger I think.

As a child, I used to take part in Guy Fawkes celebrations that had a bonfire and a 'guy'- which was burned as an effigy- and every firecracker money could buy' memories which still glow in the dark and still bang with the excitement of childhood past
