Our Founding Fathers
By Lisa Noe

In seventeen seventy-six we became the nation to beat,
Our founding fathers fought for it, gave to you and me.
We fought so many wars to preserve our brave and free,
From world War I, World War II, Korea, Vietnam, and now Middle East.
We won our freedom because of the brave men and women who planted the seed.
Those who fought for our Country for Independence for us all.
That’s why we celebrate fourth of July,Independence day.
The fire works represent the bombs of war bursting in air…
We celebrate with happiness because we have our freedom from Those, Who wish to world war III declare.
I love this country and the brave men and women who serve,
I hope that everyone gives them the thanks they deserve.
When you celebrate Independence Day,
Think of America and how it became this way.
Thank the Founding Fathers for Democracy,
Never let us fall to the hypocrisy.
