How Brilliant is the Sky Tonight

entry picture

How brilliant is the light tonight

how brilliant is it

 

Flashes like meteors boom and bang

A festival of fireworks

Heading here and there  

 

How brilliant is the sky tonight

how brilliant is it

 

But some won’t see it

Others will  

A child points at a flashing light

And then they are in it

 

 

How deadly is the night tonight

How chilling is it

Chilling is the word, David. This had to be said, and you said it so well.
