Comment from Debbie D'Arcy

Excellent

Lovely post with strong visual, informative notes and clearly expressed verse in perfect format. I only wish they'd be banned in the UK. The latest riot in Scotland when the police were attacked with fireworks and the unbearable dismay of pets are reason enough. Thanks for bringing this fine verse to our attention. Good luck! Debbie

Thanks so much, Debbie! You raise some good points about the downsides of fireworks. A time will surely come when they'll be banned there, too.

Thanks to a Brit FS friend, I also just learned about Guy Hawkes Day. You other countries have WAY cooler things to celebrate than we do here in the States!! Good luck in the polls. xo

This is a well written piece of poetry in haiku style in which you tell the story about the gunpowder plot. You have described the "insurrection" well with its "Gunpowder, Treason and Plot". Good luck.

I enjoyed your slice of history and wonderfully written and presented 5-7-5 poem! I wish you all the best with this one. Looks like a winner to me. ;))
