Many ways to say good night.
Fireworks at a pier on the Fourth of July
spell it with red wheels and yellow spokes.
They fizz in the air, touch the water and quit.
Rockets make a trajectory of gold-and-blue
and then go out. . . .
~ from "Good Night" in Smoke and Steel
However you might spell this night, let it be a celebration of our continued independence!
Happy Fourth of July!
