What a glorious day
to think about Independence
the blessings and privileges
that have come my way
Freedom of thought
and of things to share
the right to agree or disagree
about the things we care
Freedom to move about
to see and enjoy this great land
from the seashores to the mountains
by any mode of transportation we can
Freedom to worship God
or the freedom not to
expressions of faith
see our souls through
Happy Birthday America
celebrations throughout the land
fireworks and barbecue
parades and bands
In the pursuit of freedom
many lives have been lost
cherish and protect it
freedom comes at a cost
God bless America
on this Independence Day
let freedom ring
as we go our way

Reblogged this on COVID Odyssey by Alan Grace and commented:
Independence (an Acrostic)
In NZ and all countries
No longer may we suffer
Don’t pray underestimate
End timeframe for this plague
Peace bring to all world’s people
Enduring health and calm life
Now and forever after
Deliver us from evil
Epidemics and virus
Now beating at the border
Cease COVID’s lasting vile threat
Ever pray may we stay safe
Amen
