Explosive colours,

high in the sky, raining down as

even more fly up.

So true; however, this haiku can be taken in several different ways. For one, it could have the simple meaning of just the fireworks, but it can also have a much deeper meaning. Like how a person can light up a room, over and over again. Then, when they go down, there's always someone else to light up the room once again. It's one of those things that you'd call a never-ending cycle, yes? :D
