The American Flag
(rhyme poetry)
Our nations colors are always seen,
First of all for freedom's cause.
Touching us, moving us with every scene,
In history never take a pause
Flag that led us through many wars,
Glorious stars and stripes, taking its toll.
In the end taking so much more,
Shedding heroes' blood upon a shore
With colors bright it's always there,
Symbolic cloth that our hearts adore
With so much pride that we can wear,
And display with honor right by the door!
Glorious flag that makes us unite,
Filling us all with so much love.
Blessed One from the Mighty above,
Flying high in the wings of a dove!
