Premium Member AS THE FLAG UNFURLS
AS THE FLAG UNFURLS* ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ the flag unfurls, its colors bold against the waking sky— each star, each stripe a testament to pride, honor, and patriotism. pride, not a shield, is a bridge, linking the stories of brave soldiers, those who once fought in battlefields, their shadows etched in the soil, their courage a whisper in the rustling leaves. honor is a compass, etched in...

Folded in Ink and Stars
A banner flutters in miniature pride, stars frozen mid-waltz, stripes folding like gentle waves— a tiny chorus of red, white, blue. I imagine the seam of that paper flag, its edges serrated like hopeful teeth, waiting to bite into air, to sail across neighborhoods on whispered wings. Each star is a promise— a small light in a massive sky. Each stripe, a pulse: resilience, unity, churned...

Premium Member THE FOLDED FLAG
I used to be proud to fly our American flag as from childhood I was taught I used to fly our American flag without giving it a second thought. But I see a divided country now…one that is quickly moving away from democracy and even though there are people out there who see things differently than me in...

No Flag on the Hill
No Flag on the Hill He woke to the hiss of burning plastic a child's shoe, half-melted in the road. Something like singing came from the mosque, but it was only wind through broken glass. The birds left weeks ago. Even the dogs are quiet now. A rusted swing creaks in a schoolyard where no one plays anymore. A mother once painted the front...

AMERICA
America, is my home, I love it with all my heart, and will never part. It has had its up and downs, and sometime caused me alarm. America has grown through all its ways, ways to make better days. It has gone to war, and fought for rights, died and saved lives, that now work hard...

Underneath that Grand old Flag
Natives interrupted Guns pointed to their chests Blown away like beautiful dandelions Into that sweltering sun Americans lollygag In their newly claimed land Under that grand old flag Slaving away, picking cotton Under the South’s heat of injustice Scarred with inhumane treatment Sweating tears and pain Burdens heavier than sandbags Yes, they’re slaving away Under that southern flag Stripped away from homes and work And terrorized prior still No voice spoke...

Premium Member When I See The Haitian Flag
When I see the Haitian flag, tears rush into my eyes. When I see the Haitian flag, my Haitian heart cries. Our people have been ridiculed, yet our flag continues To flow unimpeded. We will never die on our knees. If we must die, we will die standing like brave soldiers. We will not bow our head. We will stare...

At the Battlelines of Love Waving A White Flag
"When our dance of love became frantic, I faltered, and you danced on my grave." *** "How did it come to this, my darling one? We may never know the answer, but with the rain in my eyes, you look so beautiful in red." *** Every direction only led further from you. Every decision was the...

We Are One
Red and white glory freely flies Mapleleaf, strong and proud, framed by bright blue skies From glacier fjord to mountain stream Over fields of gold and trees of green Nothing is more beautiful to see Than that red maple leaf flying free The simple flag is our greatest treasure, Heralding a nation beyond measure There is nothing I would rather be than an honored...

Red Flag
You say you're no prince of mine, but what else could you be? A hitchhiker in my heart, a pedestrian in my mind? Is that you under the harsh sun, holding a holey parasol? Maybe you're fleeing the crime scene of your heartbreaking. But you see, none of that makes any sense to me. So I wait here, for you to appear on a cream-colored horse. ...
