Safe 4th Of July For All

Boom crackle pop
Late into the night
Giving not a thought
To those it gives a fright

Colors paint the sky
Noises overhead
Confusion evermore
For those with fireworks dread

Boom crackle pop
Celebrations days on end
Giving not a thought
To those we call best friend

Horses, dogs and cats
Friends to us each and all
Are often frightend nightly
When fireworks from the sky fall

Terrified and confused
Running away to escape the fright
Sometimes even injured
Trying to escape the bright light

Protect your friends from danger
Guard them in the night
Help to lesson the confusion
Please do what is right

Exercise caution and precaution
When with fireworks you play
Make sure that ALL your loved ones
Are safe this 4th of July day
