Poem
I SEE AMERICA I see tall green majestic trees, and fields with warm and fertile soil I see strong hands grasping simple tools in sincere and honest toil I see purple mountains majestic peaks, and rolling capping waves I see broad rivers flow, in valleys green, through golden sunlit haze Oh Lord God I see America in her golden harvest days! I see factories with spinning wheels and thundering broad cascades I see tractors pulling mighty plows through clouds of dust they raise I see white domed spires reaching high, And the dusty black round coal miners eye Oh God thank you for America, holding work and honor high! I see children standing straight and tall, saluting grand old flag I see men in arms, they gave it all, with not a one to brag I see steam fitter, mechanic, electrician, farmer and engineer And when you raise a flag amongst them, they all shed a tear For the flag that they all love, and the friends they held so dear Oh God I see America, standing righteous without fear! I see many hands upon a shovel, many colors to the hands I see America bend her back, to work and till her lands I see the fish bite in the brook, on hot midsummers day I see the children run and leap, and shout and jump and play I see her people kneel in church, and then I hear them pray Oh God we thank you for these blessings, of each and every day! But, Oh Lord God what is it, that I see this cold new day, I can’t believe we’d give this up , and simply walk away From our nation as she once was, before we turned astray, And lifted up the human mind to rule and lead our way!
