God Blessed Our Founding Fathers

God Blessed Our Founding Fathers
By Franklin Price

God blessed our founding fathers
Who then led us off to war
To establish our Great Country
That had never been before

They stood up tall and mighty
Before the greatest Isle on Earth
They signed the Declaration
Giving our great country birth

They called upon the citizens
To stand up, fight and die
When we read Declaration
We can

Our Founding Fathers

Our Founding Fathers
By Franklin Price
04/04/2020

Our founding fathers had a dream
That's how the U.S.A. began
They pledged their lives together
For freedom of their fellow man

It wasn't all about themselves
But their negotiated sights
For all the people on the Earth
And what they thought were human rights

Their fight led to independence
From Royal England far away
They framed up the Constitution
And Bill

Founding Fathers

I have flashbacks of you, from when I was so young  
i thought you left me, to explore this vast galaxy, for mankind  
You taught us how to survive on this big banged up, revolving planet  
Leaving your footprint for us to use and making us all very bemused

10 Word Contest the Founding Fathers Signatures

Corrosion of our country‘s values piques
our interest; cuddled minds with cudgels speak 
and bark, confused by all but tribal laws,
subconscious minds coddled with pride. The fall 
is sure to come, and the Great Seal — break. 
Democracy at stake, and still none wake, 
as all our rights contort. Through fear or spite 
competing visions won’t

Revere the Founding Fathers, Part Ii

...And Alexander Hamilton,
though know for controversy,
served alongside Washington
in the war to make us free.
Helped build up our new armed forces,
set the stage for our economics,
the prosperity we still enjoy,
he had a lot to do with it.
The man stood against slavery
when many just chose to ignore
the problem as unsolvable,
unwilling to seize something more.
He rose up from

Revere the Founding Fathers, Part I

We star it off with Ben Franklin,
American renaissance man,
whose industry and sharp wit
made him the richest in the land.
Lived out an American dream
before the country ever was,
entertained with his writings and
helped discover scientific law.
Pushed hard for independency
and helped form the Declaration,
then served us diplomatically
to get help for the new nation.
His writings still offer wisdom
that is

Said the Founding Fathers Voices From the Graves

Said their Voices from the Graves.

Listen!

As death amplifies the frequency of remembrance

you delve into your faith,

your mind searches for God

and answers.

Unify your sincerity,

and let your questions be herd.

Together!

yours are the voices that will rise

and resonate,

the justice that will adhere,

the love that will mend,

and the prayers that will bring change..

Surely!

God is aware

and you are His proxies.

Not Our Founding Fathers Country

Not Our Founding Father's Nation 
By Franklin Price
7/7/2016

Not our founding father's nation 
That we're living in today
We're no longer using horses
To move ourselves along the way

Autos, planes and satellites
Make this country very small
The World is not much bigger
All is at our beck and call

Information instantaneous
Don't have to wait for print
No time to think what's happening
To

Dear Founding Fathers of These United States

DEAR FOUNDING FATHERS,

WHERE IS OUR REPUBLIC?

WHAT HAPPENED TO THE CONSTITUTION,

OF THESE UNITED STATES?

WHERE IS THE POWER OF THE PEOPLE?

AND WHY IS THE POWER RESERVED FOR ONLY A FEW ELITE LEADERS?

WHERE IS OUR TRUE FREEDOM?

WHY DO DEBT, TAXES, AND GREED,

RULE OUR SOCIETY?

DEAR FOUNDING FATHERS,

WHERE IS OUR MORAL OBLIGATION,

OF THE FREEDOM FOR ALL OF HUMANITY?

THIS UNITED STATES

Founding Fathers

You have done quite
An excellent job
The day of rewarding will come 
When all the records will be played
To the future generation
For fulfilling your pledge
To the people of this generation
You gave us inspiration
In you did we get our motivation
We come together as a nation
Even though we were just a people
We went astray
But look at us today

Founding Fathers

This is when we celebrate,

This is when we came,

a day for which we will never forget,

the day we hath taken our name,

The essence is  for your light of day,

but yours is in the nights in which you pray,

for i remember the smell, of the glorious day,

where you use to beg me,but only to say,

"goodbye",
