STARS AND STRIPES

Majestically upon the wind,
your vibrant colors fly,
red, white and blue, stars and stripes
across an open sky.

You symbolize solidarity,
of country which is great,
with threads of strength that unify
every separate state.

Loved by all you shelter,
or those who under you may dwell,
respected by all others,
who don’t...

The Stars and Stripes our nation's Flag
Represents “for which it stands”
Not for the issues facing us
Here and in foreign lands

Represents not what out country is
But what it ought to be
A shining light for all the world
From sea to shining sea

Through...

Behold our waving flag and what it means.
Our young soldiers have fought and died for liberty.
When their remains are carried home across the seas
As loved ones mourn their loss it’s plain to see

The pride for these brave souls behind the tears.
Their flag covered coffin pays...

Stars and Stripes
As I sit here and watch red, white, and blue.
Waving it's stars of a United nation against the sky blue.
   So much anger, and judgment i could spew. 
For my skin color is the recorded history, of some of your most evil.

Love for the Stars and Stripes
Took him to far places
He was proud and duty bound
And then his life changed

On his chest the medals gleamed
There, oh those red ribbons
That he could not see 
But memories of her face

Premium Member The Pain of Stars and Stripes
It has been said that pain is
a conversation waiting to be had.
If that is so, there’s so much to share:

Today, the term the United States
is on the road to becoming less and less
an applicable synonym for America.

Reigning division and separatism
seem to be the new twin...

Stars As Stripes Their Lady In Cement
Troubled by the things we see; this, hodge podge his reality....
Waking up, unto another day is worse enough, just facing myself ?
Let alone her world as then these other entities a zest pool of wretched's
No one seems to know their way about, time's maze ever...

Stars and Stripes
Out of great struggle
  comes even greater opportunity

Each threat being glue
  and a tie that binds

With noble purpose
  we define our highest calling

Freedom in our blood
  —by our will refined

The Stars and Stripes
After 9/11, flags
Were proudly on display 
To show the world we stood together
In the U.S.A.

Such a rare attack at home
United every side,
So stars and stripes were flown
To show defiance, strength and pride.

Yet now that symbol has become 
An icon of the right
And seeing flags on...

Stars on stripes, tap dancing
across, with cane in hand
and ballroom hat. Vote
will be in soon. Smiling -
as it’s not a mystery
to the King on the throne.
He’s always completely 
in control. This is
the same King who brings
dry bones back to life.
He’s all about life and love,
peace...

Stars and Stripes
Wrapped in red, white, and blue, he stands
A steely gaze, with unwavering hands
Greatness awaits, his fervent plea
Making the America dream --to be free!

Raise your gaze and mind to the flag,
And there see all that we bear to this land –
A looking glass it is of our hopes and deeds.
Stars and stripes are all I ever see:
Stars that make my heart hop with glee 
And stripes, bloody stripes,...
