| The fireworks over the Thames last night |
The Games are over, but what it has created can live on
And so it is over. London’s greatest summer ended last night
with a festival of flame. As the Paralympic Cauldron was extinguished, the Thames
exploded with a breathtakingly beautiful cacophony of noise and light, and the
night sky turned to fire. Beneath this were a people who were in bittersweet
mood: sad to see it go, but jubilant at the glory of these few months and
utterly inspired.
