The 4th Of July

By Bud Lemire on June 27, 2009


Thunderous sounds bring on colorful lights in the sky
It’s time once again, to celebrate the 4th of July
So many colors appearing, and spreading out
Ooohs and awwwws are heard all about
 
In the darkness, the color shines all around
From the sky comes another thunderous sound
Greens, reds, blues, and yellows appear all over the sky
Beauty is so often beheld by everyone’s eye
 
People sitting on the ground, many are sitting in their chair
Some have sparklers, or are lighting firecrackers over there
A bottle rocket shoots into the sky over head
And atop the hill I see there is a pair of newlyweds
 
Holding hands and they gaze at the sky
I see the love gleaming in their eye
Blue eyes, brown eyes, flash of color in the air
Fireworks thunder while it’s love they share
 
For them, every day is like the 4th of July
You can see it if you look in their eye
It’s a great night for sparks, it’s a great night for love
While the colors are shining down from far above
The finalé brings on the last thunder of the night
Darkness comes, but these two dance away in the light



Nothing is as great as watching the Fireworks on the 4th Of July with the one you love. Sharing in the special moment, on a very special night. I wish everyone a Great 4th Of July, and hoping you’re sharing it with the ones you love.
