The Flag!
The flag will stand,
Through joy,
Across the land.
It will stay strong,
Through depression,
No mater how long.
Through war,
That will rage,
We will stay strong against our aggressor.
There stands that eagle,
So proud,
So regal.
Those stars and Stripes,
Blowing in the wind,
Those tears away to wipe.
This land that was made free,
thinking of you poems
By the brave and the strond,
For all to see.
Comments Please:)
great
reminds me of this poem :
Flag - John Agard
What's that fluttering in a breeze?
Its just a piece of cloth
that brings a nation to its knees.
What's that unfurling from a pole?
It's just a piece of cloth
that makes the guts of men grow bold.
What's that rising over athinking of you poems tent?
It's just a piece of cloth
that dares the coward to relent.
What's that flying across a field?
It's just a piece of cloth
that will outlive the blood you bleed.
How can I possess such a cloth?
Just ask for a flag my friend.
Then bind your conscience to the end.
Very good effort indeed.
Congrats.
