Fourth of July, Independence Day for the United States, and
On the news political speeches praising the nations heritage, then
Reading of the declaration in deep proud voices and joyful singing.
The country will celebrate with parades and fireworks and ceremonies,
Hanging the flag outside their homes and having...

This Fourth of July
This 4th Of July

To my fellow Americans, 
during this 4th of July.
I have a thought.. . Here's why…

When we salute our flag
 ever so grand.
Our country's foundation
 is sinking in "quicksand."

This is because.   From God...  
We're way "off course."
Driven by lust, greed

Founding fathers believed in freedom of the press, religion, speech, assembly, and petition.

Opportunity must be opened to all.

United we stand and divided we fall.                     ...

Fourth of July, time for fireworks and fun,
Our nations birthday, we'll all celebrate. 
Uncle Sam is the man of the hour on this date
Reaffirming our values and food by the ton.
Two Hundred and thirty-nine years old today,
Hang out the colors, the red, white blue.

Our Emblem...

Forget not those who sacrificed that we might enjoy this special day.

Our cherished freedoms we owe to them who in hallowed sepulchers lay.

Undulating o'er this blessed nation the Grand Old Flag does yet wave.

Resolute Founding Fathers and ordinary men so very true and brave,

Took extraordinary...

For many years this day was one
Of my favorite times of having fun.
Until this date in Sixty-two
Ripped into my heart, cut it in two.
To leave it shredded for evermore.
He would never again come through the door.

Oh how we cried, the children and I,
Father was gone,...

The Fourth of July: a Lie 'Or the Star Spangled Banner
We clad ourselves in colors as we march,
saluting independence through a foggy dream;
gazing at the night alight with flashes,
sparkles,
and firefly screams.

Rockets made in China, cascade/
to the backdrop of the Star Spangled Banner;
a flutter to the wind blown flags made in Brazil
and "I Love America Pins"...

Freedom of choice
Or think without hindrance
Under one flag of glory and pride
Red, white, and blue which we honor and serve
That stands for
Hope and justice for all

One Nation under God
Firmly holding our values

Justice and perseverance
Upon dreams of beliefs and values
Living in this country of ours
Yielding equality

Fourth of July
The fireworks exploding behind our closed eyes, 
They come to life with the spark from our lips.
We open our eyes and sway back and forth,
Looking at each other as if we will be there forever.
We pull in close and embrace....
