Bunting draped across the town and tall ships
Pops and bangs and fizzes and whizzes
Dogs chasing cats chasing birds chasing mice
People waving flags
Dots and lines and zigzags everywhere
The sky is full of colours
Blues greens reds yellows oranges and purples
Tall ships glide, small ships float, RNLI fly
Steven the seagull soars around in the sky
Sailors dance jigs on the rigs
Crowds cheer
Goodbye tall ships.

Whoosh, sizzle, crackle, boom,
Watch those fireworks soar and zoom,
Scarlet, amber, aqua, lime,
A sky of colours all the time.
See those tall ships hit the sea,
People are as happy as can be,
Watch those seagulls call to friends,
Watch the flags twist and bend.
At the warm Tallships day there are …
People swimming in the bay
seagulls flying around all day
People looking out to sea
people applauding at the view of the deep blue sea
Animals everywhere running about
all in the excitement of no doubt
Cats and Dogs run and play
whilst people are waving flags all the way
The fireworks fizz and pop
whilst children jump and flop
Sailors shouting and doing jigs
up on 30 foot rigs
The boats creak but no one shrieks
The rat scurry in a rush and hurry
Busy towns noise echoes in the shores
The rolling turquoise seas
gives people a tease
So people swim in the bay
through the Tallships day
All the time the seaside accordian
plays the a wistful tune at the end of the day.
I can see people waving flags in my face as I walk through the colorful crowd: red ones, green ones, blue ones – as far as I can see. And I can hear yells of joy and happiness. And then I see the tall ships gliding through the emerald sea. Beautiful. Elegant.
BANG, POP, WHIZZ. There goes another firework dancing in the dark blue sky, fizzing and swirling – up up they go into the cloudy night they fly. The streets are lit up with lights all shades of colours as people walk through. The tall ships are swaying as they show off there amazing colors to the people on the bay. ‘Woof woof,’ ‘Meow meow,’ the cats and dogs are singing as well, and the streets are bursting with sound. I go to sleep this night thinking of the wonderful tall ships that I have seen and I drift to sleep like one.
Bang, Pop, Whizz, Zoom
That’s how the fireworks fly.
Up,up into the sky,
Up where the tall ships sigh
Up, up in the very high sky.
Jelly fish tenticals whizzing all around
Bubbles in our ears as the fireworks POW
The fireworks go Pop Bang Sizzle Sizzle
That’s how the fire works go.
Yellow, blue, green, violet
The flags on the tall ships are colours,
Colours in the sky just as the fireworks fly.
‘Zoom’ by Monty Lyall, Age 12 Years
Zoom, zoom
Be careful of the boom
It might not zoom but it has a big boom.
People, people waching from the tower,
I don’t know why but they have been wating for an hour!
As people scream and cheer
Cats hide from the fireworks that go
Whizz, pop, bang in the sky.
Colours, colours in the sky,
Pink, pink, yellow, blue.
As the night goes on you feel tired
But excited for more and more fun.
As the evening grows darker the noises
And celebrations continue.
White sails as white as snow.
Sailors dancing and prancing round and round.
Fireworks flashing and crashing in the air.
Birds going higher so they don’t catch on fire.
There stands tall ships as tall as the sky.
Then they all start to wave good bye.
