Come 4th

Colors explode ink black skies

“Let the party begin!” corpses cry

Celebrate right and left shore

Come 4th!

Claim freedom rights

break chains personal, national, and international this night

dance freedom's fight

in exploding lights

King over serf, master over slave

substance over subject freedom saved

Sing, Dance, Create

Love over Hate

Come 4th friend

Wield freedom's sword and pen

put away chains

freedom rains

America, the world needs you free

we need freedom's creativity

Mr. Politician put away your power

the world needs a free America this night this hour

Miss Liberty hold that light a little higher please

shine from sea to sea

to see what enslaves outside and in

our world's demons and our personal sins

Celebrate and guard your freedom puchased with blood.

Let freedom flood

every aspect every pore

Come forth America Come 4th!!!

  1. Hey Rollie,

    Nancy and I just got on your blog site. Looks good. The fourth of July poem is very thought provoking. You spent a lot of time writing it--"a life time." We will try and keep up with your blog, although we are not good at "keeping up." Something in the way we orchestrate our lives.

    Keep it up.
