Fireworks Display

It’s hard to wait till it gets dark
To see shoot up above the park
The colored lights that spread and hang,
Then go off with a sudden BANG!–
To watch the flashing red pinwheels
That shout to me with friendly squeals.
And so the 4th of each July
Is “Independence Day”–but why?
With all its noise and fun and light,
I’ll call it “Independence Night!”
