Round of Applause

Round of Applause When I would see flag in wind wave Was truly a picture I wanted to save Capture in my mind without any doubt This wanted to write a poem about. Flag was flying high in the breeze In any direction that did please With three colors and white stars shining Making it looking like it had a silver lining. Brave all of those men must have been Fighting for freedom again and again While bombs were bursting everywhere And this story with you wanted to share. Was such a scene I will never forget Then when my Maker and I had met Found freedom was reason for our cause All heavenly angels gave us round of applause. James Thomas Horn, Retired Veteran
