Why does it always rain on the Fourth of July?
****
I don't know, so tell me why?
Why does it always rain on the fourth of July?
Why do I miss the golden sunsets
Though I watch with baited eye?
Why can't I be in the right place
To see the eagle majestically fly?
Why do I miss the shooting star
As it lights up a purple sky?
Why can't I be the first
To hear a new born baby cry?
I don't know, so tell me why?
Why does it always rain on the fourth of July?

...........so nicely you captured the spirit of the fourth of july with this beautiful poem....and with the sunset, I even imagined a cook out....with lots of friends and family watching the fireworks show afterwards.....
