Fourth of July

Light, shattering the darkness.
Colors splattered across the black canvas of night.
The crackling pops and booming thunderclaps.
Hazy smoke smothering each breath.
Shrill laughter, sparks leaping from the pavement.
The celebration of a historic moment remembered through pyrotechnics.
Fireworks are grand, but are not the reason for this holiday. 
 Happy Independence Day
