Happy 4th of July

Women and men
forged this country
at tremendous
risk.

 

Creating

and sustaining
opportunity
and freedom.

 

Opportunity

unequaled
in human
history.
 

Freedom to grow,

change
and exceed
your reach.
 

They did not create

equality.
They did not create
fairness.
 

Those are merely

idealistic figments
of the human
mind.
 

Wondrous goals.

Closer to attainment
by virtue of
“We the people…..”
 

Celebrate

the future
they made
possible.
