The fireworks saw it all
They stared down at the children
Watching below with glee
They applauded the veteran
Who stood and saluted his flag
They glowed for the teenage boy
Who kissed his love at the right moment
They smiled down at the broken girl
Who's only hope is in Someone she can't see
The fireworks saw it all
Bringing their warmth and light
To every dark corner
In the country
Of the free.
