FREEDOM RINGS FREEDOM SINGS

 

FOURTH OF JULY 2010
 

Freedom rings, Freedom sings
Our beautiful flag means everything
Independence day is here again
Time to celebrate with family and friends

Our Fourth Of July is here for all
Let us also remember a comrades fall
With all the soldiers, tried and true
We raise our flag, red, white and blue

Freedom rings, Freedom sings
We thank a soldier for every thing
For we stand to salute our flag today
A wave of glory and beauty this day

Fireworks and frolic is all much fun
Let us remember how it all begun
We celebrate life, we celebrate freedom
We share it with others, there is a reason

Freedom rings, Freedom sings
Let us give thanks for everything
For on this earth, no better place to be
Our freedom sings, to you and to me

Dear Mona

It is good to see another person who remembers what this holiday is all about. From Pugilist's post: I hate to see anyone being ganged up on and I'm proud of you for not responding in kind. Love, Cat

Thank you my Faithmarie

I appreciate your words lady from Florida and how did you like all that sunny weather today. LOL we still had our BBQ all kinds of food and things and of course the show of colors in the sky was just wonderful. We all sang songs and the kids were running around, reminding me of when Mom and Dad brang us to the beach when we were young on July 4th with popcorn and Italian Ice's. After all the buzz of the day I distinctly remembered the times of youth and all the great memories from Connecticut and Florida. Hope you had a great day Love at ya gal Mona xoxo

Mona, What can I say that

Mona, What can I say that hasn't been said ? You are a gem...thanks for sharing this with all of us. I made a trip to Wally World this morning..bought a few more of the small flags that are now proudly displayed within my gardens...bought a couple of the Red/White/and Blue pin wheels that turn with the breeze, as well. I will think of you as I see them for the rest of the summer... It's ALL good! Sue

Love at ya Jetz

your comment hits home and that is just what I thought of alot today while all the noise was around me the years of pinwheels and Connecticut at Calf Pasture Beach in Norwalk. I appreciate your visits Jetz and all the love you send down here to Florida. Now I got to go get me some of those pinwheels as I love to watch them spinning around in the winds. Kind of like me lately:) I hope you and truth had a great day and will be catching up to your beautiful words soon. Love at ya gal Mona xoxox

Thank you Randy friend

So nice of you to pay me a visit as I really need to get back to reading everyone and writing. I made a wish today to get myself and I promised myself that the distractions of late got to go and I will continue on with my writings and learnings. After all, that is why I came here and decided to stay here for there is something here for me that is better and bigger then the animosity or angered poets who have nothing better to do then make us all look bad. My endurance and support for those who run this site will be here now and in the future and there is nothing or no one that will deter me from my goals. Never has and never will. You know me Hobo I have a strong constitution and do not chime to all bells that do not beat to my drum. I walk in my own two shoes and know that I am also a woman of courage and strength, that no one in this world can take away from me. My father taught me that at a young age and I have endured more in my 53 years of life and survived to write four books. I have been taken by surprise lately and I hold no one at fault or harbor any ill feelings. I speak I write I speak I write. and just like now I know you don't mind me writing to you. I do apologize for this being lengthy and I love ya guy for the person you are. I hope you and the family had a wonderful day today. Love and Hugs to you and all out there Mona

Don't ever feel to hold back in anything on my writes as that is perfectly fine with me and I appreciate it very much you do that. Afterall we are all in this to help one another and that is what I intend to do from this day forward on this fourth of July 2010. I still worked on this one tonight and may be back for some more squeaky tweaky I hope you had a great day and you did not burn the hot dogs. LOL Love at ya guy Mona xoxo
