FUSION

A brilliant display of firworks
illuminates the night sky
The imminent beauty brings a 

tear to my eye
Spectacular visions of colour
bursting forth
Radiance of glorious worth
Little ones filled with jubilee
Eyes wide at the amazingness
of amalgamated beauty
Consuming the brightness of
fusioned colour
Folk looking on entranced in
this awesome wonder
For a time I sit and stare
Not at the lights but the people
out there
Engrossed in something other
than their own fear
Whispering, laughing, shouting
void of care
For just a while all else is forgotten
All hurts and pain, all that is
vile and rotten
A moment where there is no
haunting memory
Clear of anger, trauma, sorrow of
past history
Pure happiness as smiles unburden
their faces
No displacement of airs and graces
Merely lost in the moment and when
done there is no confusion
As though the beauty out there and
in their souls were caught in fusion...
