Operation Just Cause
...for as long as it takes
Fourth of July
by Chuck *Doc* Stewart

What is the meaning

of Fourth of July
To many it is just
pretty lights in the sky

When I see those pretty

lights in the sky
I think of bombs bursting
of days long gone by

So very many have served
the Red, White and Blue
ask others what it stands for
and many have nary a clue

Many have fallen
for our country's flag
To others
it is merely a rag

The Pledge of Allegiance

is no longer allowed in our schools
then we are angered when our young break the rules
To this I say "Who are the FOOL's?"

I thank God
each and every day
that I was born and served proudly
this US of A

Chuck *Doc* Stewart 1998
