Flag's Defender
B-eacon twenty-fourth February
E-liminates the long night;
R-ise of the sun begins,
N-ew dawn Friday shares the light.
A-n early morn has broken,
R-aindrops start to vanish;
D-ark shadows disappear, fog and mist diminish.
A-fter the moon is gone,
N-either dusk nor twilight stays;
S-tarry sky becomes blue,
E-rasing the coal black haze.
L-et him fulfill his dream,
M-ake him a brave good soldier;
O-ne day he shall stand as the valiant flag's defender.
