Oceanside, CA celebrated it's 125th birthday yesterday, July 3, 2013. Professional photographer, Peter Ahsue, captured the fireworks celebration for all to enjoy. I have set my haiku thoughts to each of his seven photos.
Special Haiku for Oceanside's 125th Birthday:
She dresses in red,
Celebrating her birthday,
Dancing in the night

Accessorized with purple,
Ready for her dance

She makes up for it with style,
Bedazzling the night

Celebrate in gold,
Frilled in white and splashed with red,
She wooed them tonight

She takes the night sky,
Painting the dark with thin lines,
Like a star, she shines

Though here, they are still,
Clusters explode, one by one,
Coloring the night
