the flag
The American Flag
A deep silence covers the land.
Citizens, strangers, old and young
Began to listen and stand at attention
As the drummers beat out their appointed
Tune.
Awesome music fills the air;vibrating
Enthusiam everywhere.
What is it they see? why will they stand?
Its old glory;the flag of our nation.
It represents our freedom;the love,
One nation under god!
Greatness;gentleness,equality for all.
Our men and women who gave willingly
Their all.
So don't forget as time passes us by
What it stands for now;and the momemt it began to fly.
