Dear, get me a cocktail, ... those fruity ones, Me with no glasses, ... No miss, errs or runs, saluting sounds of conscience smoking fumes are obnoxious he strayed, two sunbathed girls, "Dears, it's the guns."...

Fourth of July
A dolphin ride in a lake that's green While covered in a greasy sheen Cooking under my sunscreen My father throws me high Hungry now and out of breath Underwater I go deaf Splashing up to see what's left Of sandwiches to try Fireworks explode above Mother hugs me, full of love And I fit just like a glove Oh, Fourth of July...

The Fourth of July Timing
I had an early nap last night without a drop of tear coming from my eyes, the day was exhausting my spirit was reeling and an early nap was enough to set my spirit free. The environment with all its sediment kept spitting negative energy at me, I had to pull away from it...

Premium Member On One July Night
Gathering, waiting As dusk settles near, Patiently anticipating To watch and to hear The first shooting spark To utter a boom, And fill up the dark With a crackling bloom Familiar faces angled To get the best view, Of a sky spangled With red, white and blue Joined by the fireflies And their show of light, 'Til the last firework dies On one July night....

Premium Member Fourth of July Already
Fireworks went off on each side of the house Waking up the hoot owl, the roaches, even the mouse. Is it the Fourth of July already? An ill-informed hawk said. I was surprised; I thought this fowl was dead. There is no celebration coming this week or next. I saw a nearsighted nun give a tree a quick genuflect. Fireworks kept...

Portrait On the Fourth of July
A girl in the crowd takes a selfie. Her tam o’shanter sparkles because of the fireworks going off in the background, and because it has glitter. At the gates of Moscow weary French troops run away hands over their ears, as Tchaikovsky fires his righteous cannons. The girl with the cell is as pretty as her friend beside her, but her friend outshines the tam...

On a snow covered beach in the middle of Summer Basking in the gloominess of a dark so much glummer There lived a cow who the cowboy rode so proudly As he rode past the horse the farmer was milking loudly Everywhere he rode, leaves were falling from a blue sky While the joy of Christmas fell upon the fourth...

Premium Member Fourth of July Fireworks
Watching fireworks burst in the sky tonight, Performing incredibly awesome displays Of streamers red, blue, yellow, and white. Watching fireworks burst in the sky tonight All the villagers will stop to watch the sight, While a popular patriotic anthem plays. Watching fireworks burst in the sky tonight Performing incredibly awesome displays. All the villagers will stop to watch the sight Of streamers red, blue,...

The Fourth of July
I was asked, are you going to raise your flag on the fourth of July? Why shouldn't I raise my flag on the fourth of July, was my reply? Because they said, did you read Frederick Douglass's famous speech he orated in 1852, about what the fourth of July was to the slave? Many slaves fought on both...

Premium Member Fourth of July In Chariton Iowa
My Fourth of July memories are firmly intact. We always got together with my aunt and uncle. Which meant our cousins, and we had so much fun. The day was about picnics, watermelon, carnival, parade. Fireworks of course; and we always wore a new outfit. In red, white and blue. Decorated our bikes with streamers. Also red, white and blue. So...
