History Awakens

Some flags are red or blue, 
bright colors take their cue,
with looking glass in hand, 
see wonders that are grand.
An ancient building seen, 
cultures that once had been.
A famous person’s face, 
every creed, every race.
A war displayed 'n fought, 
so peace could then be sought.
Creatures who are now lost, 
from progress, at all cost.
Great history to recall…
my small stamps show it all.
