Thank you for your taking time to read and comment. I was lucky to have a positive experience for the most part with my parents. It is not a painful time in my memory so always a joy to write about.

Love this !!

Need to drop her from the second line Firecracker has 4 syllables, so the line has 8 syllables now.
Watched the movie Firecracker today, so the title caught my eye. It's a wonderful tribute to your mom.

You're the second to say that and firecracker is only 3 syllables. Line 2 is 7. Thank you for the read and comments. Thanks,

Must be a southern thing..we pronounce it Fī-er...lol

[Willard Wells]

fire-crack-er maybe it is northern. Hahaha

Short, sweet tribute.

The line "Always a firecracker" has just the right number of syllables; you don't need "her" or "she".

[Willard Wells]

Thank you Marie, I appreciate your time this day and your comments.

[Perkele.7885]

I like your poem and the fact that it dedicated to your Mom.
I have one suggestion though.
Change "her' to 'she'

[Willard Wells]

Thanks for taking time on this 4th to visit my simple verse. I will consider.

[John Alexander McFadyen]

Great senyru in tribute to your mother Willard. Fourth of July indeed.

[Willard Wells]

Thank you John. She always got a big bang out of it and I always tell the same lame jokes.
