Proud and towering
above us.
Saying
I’ll protect you till the end.

Flapping in the wind.
Everytime we look at you
we remember our freedom.

What we have done
and continue to do.
To remember
the people that lost and
will lose their lives
to insure our freedom.

Flying in the breeze
free and strong,
challenging people
to try and take you down.

Lasting through a night of war.
Standing tall in the middle
as if to say
you can try but you won’t put me down.

Red, White and Blue,
the Stars and Stripes,
Our sign of freedom,
the American Flag.
