The 4th

Harold got him some beef and fired up his grill.
“Don’t forget taters!” his wife said, right shrill.
Their kids and grandkids drove in to eat.
Freedom didn’t miss a beat.
But freedom isn’t free, someone said.
We owe a debt to many, living or dead —
Brave folk who paid, or are paying, freedom’s bill.
