Celebrate

Fireworks inspired me to jot a few notes

 

Celebrate!

 

Not for one did they fight this fight

And not for one would they die that night

In midst of dark they met their fates

While many their foe their ideals did hate

 

Send forth now the bright shining lights

Let them burst high in the sky

Remember now that once soldiers fell

And embrace their losses on fields in the night

 

Fire to serve our palates delight

And music yet praises our great land

Honor that man whose fate did land

For yet he fell in that dark night

 

Burst the bombs high in the sky

Let their lights fall and shower us all!

Will night so cover this blessed event?

So Celebrate now, and Celebrate freedom forever!
