ODE TO THE FLAG

By Linda Sheehan Cunningham

Our Nation's Flag is a stirring sight

As it flutters proudly in the breeze

Its colors of blue, red and white

Mean so much to you and me

Red stands for courage and hardiness

The white means innocence and purity

Blue for justice, perseverance and vigilance

In its promise to keep us free.

This banner stands for a bountiful land,

Its government, people, and ideals,

The stripes from the thirteen colonies stand,

Its symbolism is very real.

Each State now is represented

By a star of white on blue

President Washington first presented

The American Flag to You.

Many brave men have fought and died

To protect it from dishonor and disgrace.

Wives have mourned and mothers have cried

So we could remain...the United States.

The sight of this Banner brings feeling of joy,

Of courage, pride and freedom to all.

A symbol of our nation in all it's glory,

On the moon Old Glory stands tall

good luck
