America, Remember

America, Remember


Here I stand with emotions over sweeping. 
Flooding through my soul and being. 
Tears flood my eyes and stream down my face. 
As I look upon, His saving grace. 
A soldier beside me, only on leave. 
Mourning a comrad. How I feel him grieve. 
His bravery and valor floods my soul. 
Of what he gives freely, America is fooled. 
I support you my brother and lift you to God. 
For only He knows, the soils you have trod. 
I give my thanks and I praise His name. 
For all like you giving America her name. 
God Bless you all from sea to shining sea. 
God give us Liberty and let us remain Free. 
One Nation Under God and In God I trust. 
It is important for America to remember. 
Or This great nation will turn to dust.

I loved this poem. What a moving tribute for Memorial Day. Yes... America.. 'land of the free and home of the brave' so true !! Also known to be one of the biggest Christian followers in your country. We are from S/Africa, where sadly all morals and values have been lost. All schools have banned any teachings on Jesus and His love. I have a Green card for USA, and plan to use it soon. Welcome to P/Soup.
