Prestige & Pride

Synonymous with freedom,
American liberty,
A voice to vote, political boat,
Laws of Constitutionality.

Parallel to choices,
America the brave,
A pledge to honor, a brlliant bonner,
Preamble promise gave.

Equality in History,
America deems duty,
Into the waves, all Countries crave,
This Star Spangled beauty.

America is still a great country, but i feel she's lost some of it over the last 20 to 30 years. But broken things can be repaired, and the fixing should start today. Kool piece Satin & the best of luck in Dane Ann's contest >> James
