Have you ever stood still in silence, to watch her cadence and graceful glide,
there is an undeniable beauty, she’s exquisite from side to side.	
Like a mother watching over her children, unfurled high or at half mast,
she stands tall protecting our freedom, this old girl was...

A prestigious entity is old glory,
Our nations stars and stripes,
Standing in history,
Dauntless States unite,

As glory stands for all of us,
Sisters and brothers throughout the land,
A nation united in God we trust,
A republic our forefathers planned,

As we live to fly old glory,
Prosperity stands throughout the land,
As...

Premium Member I Am Known As Old Glory
I am a banner that stands for hope and freedom,
I've been around for over 200 years,
I am the flag of the United States of America,
I am known as Old Glory.

I can be seen flying atop tall buildings,
I've passed in review to honor our Military,
Our Veterans...

Old Glory
antidepressants
  slow the evisceration
    dulling guilt's knife edge
Jim was from Tuscaloosa
    His remains flew home last year

professors applaud
  sneering ripped knee pants coeds
    stomp on old Glory

Premium Member Fluid In the Wind Tattered Old Glory
the cool breeze fondles
the old tattered flag as it
hangs on the flagpole
displaying it's frayed faded
colors of red, white, and blue

fluid in the wind 
drawing your ears to the flags
flapping sounds trying
to tell manifold stories
of men and women's valor

Look at what has made us strong
the red the white the blue
Tens of thousands gave their lives
they did it just for you

None were made to sacrifice
they did it on their own
Fighting for what's in their hearts
not what's set...

Old Glory Knights Full Version Part Ii
No regard to that  precious gift of life, no regard for that all 
encompassing love and mercy, nor  were they good stewards, 
keepers of the lands, air or water.
I pray this equation turns around favorably, but in the meantime, 
to my American Brothers...

Red White and Blue - Dedicated To Old Glory
First time I saw them all together,
They were waving at me from old glory.
Never saw so many stars before that day either;
There were a lot of nights I saw more yet not as close.

Ripples of freedom met my eyes that sunny afternoon;
That special piece of...

***************************************************************

I am Old Glory, a land of the golden west
I lie between the Atlantic blue, and a vast Pacific crest
Where freedom of speech and liberty is my God given right
Oh, Lord, keep my vision shining clear and bright!

I am the cornfields beneath the prairie sky

Flying high and
waving proudly;
perched atop
a silver orifice
the magnificent
and beautiful
flag of honor -
Old Glory,
smiles upon
a grateful nation
with resplendent 
dignity and distinction....
