Crossing the Sound (07/03-04/76)
What a beautiful sight
the stars twinkled bright
by the full moon's light
crossing the sound
on a 4th of July night.
The Ferry skimmed
on the water's pathway
from Connecticut to New York
this one special day.
The sky came alive with
rainbows of colors
as the fireworks
filled the fare
and the booms echoed through
in remembrance of the past
of the "bombs bursting in air"
This spectacular array
I remember to this day
brings to view the message
of the 4th of July
with the words that
sing:
"Let Freedom Ring."
