JULY THE FOURTH
To celebrate July the Fourth
We pack the car and travel north.
With root beer cold, a frosty froth.
And Grandma's checkered tablecloth.
We've heard the woods are full of bear,
But, still we stop and picnic there.
The lake is cool and mirror-bright.
We frolic there with great delight.
And then, just when the sun goes down,
We all head right straight for town.
And there we watch a fireworks display
The perfect ending for Independence Day.
