July 4th is my favorite time of year...I'm one of the most patriotic people in the WORLD! Hope you enjoy! Peace!
***********************************


~*~ America ~*~

Above me the stars of freedom
Above me the heroes who fought as
their spirits reign the heavens.
"Freedom!" everyone shouted as the Irish, German,
and Italian immigrants crossed through Ellis Island.
Looking up in the harbor, the statue of Liberty
stands bright and strong.
The glistening sky glows throoughout the land of the free. The lights of freedom drop from the heavens above.
The nation sings a song of "Happy Birthday America"
The night sky engulfed with the colors of Red, White, and Blue.
As we watch, a nation proudly flies the flag that means so much in those 13 stripes and 50 stars.
Today is the day America lives on, today is the day we watch in awe as we remember our fore fathers that "brought forth a new nation"
Never let your colors fade, sweet America because you are the land of the free.
*********************************
Happy Birthday America!!! May you live in a world of Peace, love, and Happiness..
"We hold these truths to be self evident,
that all men are created equal
that they are endowed by their creator
with certain unalienable rights that among these are LIFE, LIBERTY, and the PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS."

GOD BLESS AMERICA! HAPPY FOURTH OF JULY!
