Long time no see....I haven't been on line as much this summer as before the weather broke & life got a little crazy so I may have missed you. Lovely offering as usual & a few more "items" added to my 4th stash! Thanks for stopping by & enjoy your family this fine day!

Thank you, Dolly. And the music links still work! It is amazing that all my fireworks graphics are still there too. I know that is not the case with some of my other older threads. Don't know what happened to them, they just seem to disappear over time.

once about a year ago I did a copy /paste of view page etc.. NONE of the music worked ... I hadn't tried. I did try this first!(learned my lesson). Victoria has helped me with loading music now & then when I want it.

Independence?
The Lady holds a tablet. There is a date engraved.
July 4, 1776. A memo that we saved.
Within that page of History, we hold the American Rose.
Pressed by weight of moments, the album now we close,
To mark the beginning of Man’s finest striving,
Wherein heroes, villains, and events were arriving,
At a small town we call Philly, (That’s where we keep the bell.)
To speak their piece, and start a war, and put them all through Hell.
It was a needed moment. We had to take our place,
Among the giants of the earth, for Life stepped up the pace.
We had to shoulder burdens, that no one else could bear,
And send the finest of our land, to fix things ‘over there.’
The blood we shed has nourished the Freedom that we sowed,
And gave the homeland back ten-fold, all debts that we had owed.
Just to ensure survival of the plantings that we nourished.
We went back for a second time, to make sure that it flourished.
We thought that we could take a break, and live a private life,
Unburdened by the problems of the world and all its strife.
But this small world kept shrinking, and our moat gives no protection,
From enemies who should be friends, except for their infection.
We’ll need to cure their illness, whatever the cost may be,
Or we will not enjoy the life we have, a life of liberty.
It’s not enough to shine a light beside the door,
We have to go among them, and boost the ‘yearnings’ of the poor.

Hi Dolly. What a great thread!!!! Happy Birthday America indeed!!!!
Can relate to storms and poor pooches. We actually had a tornado warning at 4:00 p.m. yesterday (one was cited not far from here) We're on a slab and the only room without windows is our walk in closet. Dad and I spent about 1/2 hour there with Rusty and Giz. What a trip!!!
Anyway, thanks for bringing us this lovely thread!!!

Just sharing a fact about me is all...Had I not been born 2 and 1/2 months early, my Birthday would have been on July 4th! and not April 19th.
To: DollyCali
Well, all the midis that are linked and the graphics are on either my server at the studio or Domania, so they
should still be there, but on some of my threads many of my links are broken. Guess I must have deleted them without realizing it. I rarely link to graphics or music at their original location. I figure if it's worth linking to, it's worth uploading to one of my servers....at least then I have control over whether it appears or goes away. LOL.
Thanks again for bringing the music over here. I love that Yankee Doodle Dandy midi. :-)

Another graphic I had forgotten about that still lives on my server from long ago! Wish I had left more space around it, but I think I recall that it was included on a larger black table when originally posted.
Anyway, I always enjoy your poetry and wish you a Happy 4th of July!
