For everyone who'll celebrate this special day and remember our loved ones who have sadly passed away.  The poem is a wish for everyone to enjoy and have a beautiful, peaceful 4th of July. 

My father and grandfather loved the 4th of July, and every year I feel him closer to them inside my heart.

That's why I celebrate with family and friends -- life is precious.


Happy 4th Of July. 

It's independence day
And we'll all sing and dance 
Today and we'll remember our 
Loved ones who fought for 

Our freedom and it 
Came with
A heavy price
War is not pretty 
nor is it nice

So let's take a minute 
To remember our 
Brave men and women 
Who sadly passed away 
Fighting for our freedom 

And the fireworks 
Has just begun and
The kids are having so
Much fun waving American flags
And while the adults have a few 
Beers and 
Hug and kiss each other 
And everyone is full of love
So raise your glass or your can 
Of beer and
Toast for the 4th of July 
And it's a beautiful 
And perfect day to 
Celebrate our independence day 
Fourth of July
Fourth of July

And this special day is
Forever inside our hearts 
Our freedom
And liberty we won so let's
Get this party started 
And we'll have so much fun and 
We'll never forget our true heroes who 
Died for this day so scream out loud 
Happy 4th of July and
God bless you all and peace and love 
To every American on our independence day.
