Land of the Free




                    LAND OF THE FREE

    Independence Day is July Fourth.
    Astounding miracles, this nation wrought.


    From all nations and peoples it was born.
    Incredulous, to criticize it with such scorn!


    Respecting other nations, like monarchies.
    A Constitutional Republic, we!


    Working through such difficult times now.
    Anarchy, lawlessness, can’t be allowed.


    Churches need our lasting fidelity.
    Under Stars and Stripes, we pray to remain free!


    Let us help other nations, whence in need.
    This be our past legacy and lasting creed!

Hello Tom, So glad for the salute! I hope you are enjoying your vacation! Family is going to Lake Tahoe for a few days. There is a Celebrity Golf Championship they will attend. Add the sandy beach and swim in Lake Tahoe. When you come back to the US, get to go there. Lovely. Hugs, Panagiotaxxx

We cannot remain free, if we become egotists….we need each other for uncensored dialogue, right? Happy Fourth, Joe and Ila. Hugs, Panagiota…xxx
