Let's Band As One

"Let's Band As One" 3/28/20 By: Tom C.

It seems the world has gone to hell,
 let's band as one to ring the Liberty Bell.

An unseen enemy has invaded our Land,
But by God Almighty, together we stand!

This Northern Rock we call the U.S. of A,
Full of Proud Americans, United we Stay!

God knows we've seen terror and been through wars,

But We The People must stay the course.

The Uptowns, The Downtowns, The Mis-begottens Too,

Together We Bleed The Great Red White an' Blue!

Now's the time to set politics aside,
And go to it Together, with American Pride!

As in War, some will live, some will perish,

But the Heartbeat of this Nation we shall Protect and Cherish!

The Sun will rise in splendor, and set again, 

Our tomorrows' are unknown, just remember where we've been.

It seems the World has gone to hell,
Let's Band as One to ring the Liberty Bell.

This is why we are the United States. It is weird that something that is forcing us to separate geographically may hold the ribbon that will unite is harder than ever.

Hi Thomas, nice seeing you here. Yes, United We Stand. We will overcome this distraction that has been set before us. Stay safe out there my friend. My best to you. ~ Brandy
