Cities across America celebrate the nation’s independence with time off from the job and the annual display of colorful explosions in the sky.
Re-light The Fuse
The day, the fourth;
The month, July.
We celebrate;
I’ll tell ya why.
Two hundred years,
Well, really more;
We’ve all been free
To mind the store.
Folks take a break
Enjoy their perks
Just have some fun
And fireworks.
Then, rested up
And feeling fine,
Return, pursue
Their bottom line.
