"Bicentennial" Section 3
In section 3 the narrator seemed to feel many positive vibes surrounding him in this once in a life time celebration. As it described many great spirits and activities the people were involved In in this two-hundredth year anniversary of America being "born". The narrator expressed how the people showed how great it felt to be a part of America including how kind they were to the children. Also there was a part of the narrator, as he himself felt true nationalism "now it was 1976, and my body in my bed felt for the first time what being a part of a country feels like". The section brought the poem together as it described the fun activities done during this once in a life time celebration and it also help describe what the narrator and the people felt during this exciting day.
