July-The Book of Months
July
It was Caesar to proclaim,
the seventh month that bears his name.
A fearless leader of his day,
and Julius Caesar got his way.
It's the summit of the year,
as we travel far and near,
to celebrate a special day,
when independence came our way.
The sound of fireworks late at night,
the starry sky so big and bright.
Cygnus rules the constellations,
a grandiose time for celebrations.
We look to find serenity,
it's just as peaceful as can be.
A special time we choose to rest,
the better choice of summer's best.
