Memories- Our Country of Past

Memories of a country past Growing up in a simpler time when things were unplugged fresh air was the norm playing ball with family and friends riding bike fast on the gravel, scrapped knees playing kick the can and hide and seek going to the lake, swimming till sun burnt catching fish, watching the scales fly every where Being proud to be part of a wonderful community, town, and state Having respect for parents, teachers, firemen, police, service people, clergy, heads of state & president Proud of a country that was egger to vote and no matter the out come we cheered the winner on Proud of our men that worked, helped with the family and community Proud of our women that took care of the home front, kids and worked Proud of the this country we live in Proud of our heritages that brought us here Proud of the way our ancestors come with nothing, but expected nothing but hard work We should dust of the our pride and stand up again this is still our country We have a generation that has not seen what we us to be Lets show them what we can be again
