JULY 4TH. Independence Day by ABE In the year of 1776 That paper was decreed - They were tired of oppression And wanted to be freed They wrote a Declaration So the whole world would see - This was, "the home of the brave And the land of the free" They signed that piece of parchment The leaders of this land - Knowing, divided they would fall But, together they could stand A new world lay before them Untamed from shore to shore - They swore the would protect it If it meant going to war Battles have been fought - And many lives have been lost - So sad something so basic Has such a high, high cost 'Seems freedom is a luxury There's some would bind us all - Like then, together, we can stand But divided, we will fall More than two hundred years Have past by since that day That each of us celebrate In our own different way We should be proud and thankful Pay our share of the cost - Not take freedom for granted For it easily could be lost Photobucket The original draft of the Declaration was written by Thomas Jefferson from 11 June 1776 to 28 June 1776. It was finalized and approved by the Congress and printed on the evening of July 4th. The original document was signed by only John Hancock as President of the Congress and Charles Thompson, as the Secretary of the Congress. Other signatories were added beginning in August and weren't completed for several months. Declaration Of Independence Alone in the night, gazing at the beauty, of a celestial masterpiece, yet untouched, by the cover of cloud, an unrelenting silence, is interrupted, by the insistent ticking, of an old grandfather clock in the parlor, a candle with a dual wick, rests on a table, made of knotty pine, roughly chiselled, to add a rustic touch, accentuating a floor of polished oak, provides my only light I sit watching shadows, flickering across plaster walls, mimic eerie phantoms, slithering throughout the room, refusing to take recognizable shape, cause unwanted distraction The work before me suffers, in stark contrast, pitifully begs, text be laid, to cover the nudity, of the page before me The accomplishments of my life, pale in contrast, what keeps me awake this night, the plight of a nation, will rest on the passion of my words, my friends and patriots, rely on a text, that will take them from anarchy, to democracy Shadows appearing to take shape, play tricks upon my vision, reveal a sight, resembling a picture, of a united, uniformly defined crowd, cheering and waving as one voice, one sound Suddenly it becomes clear, the page before me, fills with pronouncement, my chest swells with pride, what's written this night, becomes page after page, until, finally, to carry a nation, desiring riddance, a Declaration Of Independence 4th of july An American Soldier by Mary Hamrick There is no final solution for wretched man, only a quest for good fellows to defy them. I am a revolutionary of true colors carrying the weight of the world in my immigrant red, white, and blue hands. Always puckering for a kiss of democracy I lay back and fall easily in love with my terrain. I know no war is an easy war but I am aware that within its frenzy of gloom it reanimates the speechless. War, a place where madness in the eye of a flower seems normal and at the end of the stain of the day the beauty of being is forever gone to a place where whimpering willowy men and women are soon crushed by dangerous things in the crosscurrents of the air, then crucified. How can we ignore misery and deepen the darkness by laying back like reclining nudes with faraway eyes? No grace, no grit, no honor. For me it is not so simple. My eyes, like distant beacons, shield the will-less on their borders and as the gray gulf pulls us close to them we stand as one, waist-deep in lumps of earth wielding our orange tambourines and pray the goal of glory becomes as visible and as dominant as the force of prairie lightning. I am a soldier, your sweet protector (where old terrors mingle) creeping on until their undoing. Sign of life, as I carry the world piece by piece. HAPPY INDEPENDANCE DAY & GOD BLESSED THE USA & GOD BLESSED OUR SOLDIERS AND GOD BLESSED YOU ALL:) ɃȺɃɎɃǬɎ Ɉ {MEMBER OF CLUB FAR}
