Put a timer that calls particles() and add some math functions (like llFrand) in particles() for some interesting results:

integer on = 1;
float time = 1;

default
{
    state_entry()
    {
        particles();
        llSetTimerEvent(time);
    }
    
    timer()
    {
        particles();
    }

    touch_start(integer touches)
    {
        if (on == 1)
        {
            on = 0;
            llSetTimerEvent(0);
            llParticleSystem([]);
        }
        else
        {
            on = 1;
            particles();
            llSetTimerEvent(time);
        }
    }
}
