A Fiery Sky
I find it kind of poetic
And a little nostalgic
That for one day
Or one week
We can all see
The night sky
Lit up with fire
And the happy screams of thousands
To join the stars
On one day
Of one month
Out of every year
And the sounds
Of the fiery sky
Thundering back
North and south
Back at each other
Like drums
Of sparks
I find it comforting
That a fiery sky
Can join so many
For a few hours
And
turn back time
In memory
In memorium
Of
56
men
Who signed a piece of paper
A constitution
And of one man
Who predicted every celebration
On this day
That America will ever have
It is sweet to me
That one day
206 years ago
A group of men
Told America
*We will stand alone.
