Declaration



We gather to commemorate the day
intrinsic rights were boldly ratified
enabling such warm festivities

the band was paid to loudly play
as awestruck watchers sighed
beneath a sky alive with bright decrees.

Loved the fireworks! Tiel Ansari over at Knocking from Inside is hosting this week's Ringing of the Bards poetry carnival. Her theme is Freedom - think about submitting this? It would fit beautifully.
