Freedom ~ #4th-of-july #independenceday

Our ordinary days that we often yawn through

Were once mere ideas men fought to make true

There was blood in that ink declaring their escape

From patriots who died for today’s independent ways

Now, occasionally it gets abused in protecting misguided choices

Twisting its purpose spewing out unrestrained voices

Still, this day in July will always for all us Americans

Living that freedom that was birthed long ago in this new land

 

Happy July, 4th!
