flame, swimming, celebrated, white, tomorrow by Grace E

Tomorrow is the anniversary of when it happened. When we celebrated my little sister's 7th birthday, at a swimming pool in Boston. I don’t remember that much about the incident. I remember that I was wearing a plain white costume, and that my flame red, ginger hair was tied up in a ponytail. Mum had told me what happened. That the pool's slide had a loose bolt that had come untightened, and that I was just unlucky that I was the child who's leg it stuck into. But I will always have a souvenir of the incident. Only one leg.

We all crowed round the outdoor swimming pool which had the best view of the clear blue sky. Burst of colourful fire shot up into the air before exploding with a loud bang. We celebrated. Just then a single firework came descending down onto the pool floor. Instead of fizzing out it came shooting up bouncing around the swimming pool bursting it into flames. What was once a shiny, white family outdoor pool was now a heap of ashes. The world went silent apart from the soft sound of tears. Tomorrow was going to be a long day.

Tomorrow the sky will be filled with huge orange, white, red and blue flames; that’s because it's going to be Bonfire Night. It is celebrated because Guy Fawkes and others planned to blow up the Houses of Parliament by placing lots of gun powder under the great building. To get the gun powder barrels without being discovered probably involved swimming in the Thames and the smelly sewers... Luckily their plan failed and they were caught. He joined the team on 20th May 1604; he was captured 5th November 1605. Guy Fawkes penalty was to be hung, drawn and quartered. Ouch!!

The countdown to my swimming competition was here, tomorrow was the big day. I had been chosen to carry the baton, it wasn’t like it was the Olympic flame or anything, but it was special to me. I got there, and no one was allowed in because the pool had turned white! They managed to clean it out and finally everyone was allowed in so they all celebrated with joy but then all of a sudden, a man came in and said, “This swimming pool is not allowed for competitions.” The pool all went quiet and the celebrating was over.

flame sprang up in front of me. The snowy, white grass crunched as we walked across. Fireworks were swimming amongst the stars in the dark sky. Families cheered and celebrated, Guy Fawkes never blew up the Houses of Parliament. I was standing in the middle of my garden, the bonfire in front, and the fireworks behind. A burger in my hand, a smile on everyone’s face, you would think I was happy. However, I knew that tomorrow, all that would be left was a pile of ash and some used matches. I had unearthed a new train of thought.

On the 5th of November, me and my family went to a Bonfire Night that was celebrated by our friends. It was so fun, and I enjoyed every little bit of it, especially when the massive flame came from the beautiful bonfire. I loved the different colours that came from the flames. The white firework looked a little plain, but it still looked good, then after when I got home I watched a swimming event that was also celebrating Bonfire Night. Tomorrow, I cannot wait to tell my friends about it at school, I bet they will love to hear about it!

On Bonfire Night we went swimming first, as we headed towards the lake all the trees that lined the pathways were covered in bright white lights. Until that night I hated fireworks because of the sound they make. As the fireworks started the flame of the first firework lit up the whole area surrounding the lake. I am so glad we celebrated Bonfire Night here. As the amazing firework display slowly ended we had time to call at the sweet shop for a sweet treat. We ate our treat on the way back to the villa for our last night there. Sadly, we have to leave tomorrow I wish every bonfire night could be as special as this one.

Dear Diary,
Today was so fun I went swimming with my family and I am particularly excited for tomorrow because it's Bonfire Night. Last year we celebrated I was a little irritated by the loud fireworks, but this year I'm going to love it. If you don’t know Bonfire Night is a festival we celebrate in the UK. Often, there's a big firework show. The white, colourful flame of the fireworks spread through the sky like aeroplanes making it look like a beautiful scenery of colours mixed together on a black background. Right I need to go now.
Bye xx

Tomorrow is the big day, it is Bonfire Night! I have been waiting for this day to arrive all year as it is my favourite day of the year. The reason why Bonfire Night is my favourite day of the year is because I see hundreds of thousands of bright white, luminous yellows and dazzling green fireworks all swimming and skipping across the cold night sky. I have celebrated Bonfire Night with my family every year since I was a baby. My favourite aspect of Bonfire Night is the flame of the bonfire; they were dancing like beautiful ballet dancers.
