Waiting For Fireworks - Lg

Resting our legs
some reading books
others enjoying the view

I held onto my guy
one of the readers
women were gossiping to my left

best friend was to my right
surrounded by every kind of car
men-boys were comparing them

fireworks had not yet started 
no biggie to me
I had who I wanted

With a birthday on July 3rd, fireworks have always been special to me and I celebrate my birthday in their midst. Great piece as I look back to celebrations such as might have taken place as you describe. Congrats on your placement.
