July 4th Memories Writers’ Cramp

On July 4th
Americans
Of all stripes
Come together
To celebrate

The red, white, and blue
American flag
Flags at the cemetery
in Arlington

honoring the heroes
who died in service
to the American flag

Many go to a neighborhood
Pool party
Complete with sunscreen
And bug spray

Many start the day
With an old lawnmower
Mowing the lawn

While listening
To their favorite
Summer Playlist

Enjoying the summer’s day
Before it gets too damn hot
Then having a burger
and BBQ for dinner

and cold beer
to wash it down
while watching the fireworks
over the local park


Include

red, white, and blue
neighborhood pool party
sunscreen and bug spray
old lawnmower
flags at the cemetery
