Patriotism and Pride |  | My flag fly's everyday
when it doesn't rain.
It will fly forever
and forever it will remain.
It reminds of my freedom
along with all those who died.
My patriotism will never cease
my spirit won't be denied.
Many wars were fought and won
so that I could show pride.
With my love for this country
in which I'll never be denied.
Those brave young men and women
who fight to keep us free.
I consider them all heroes
I hope you'll all agree.
From those first men in our country
back there in the revolution.
Who gave their lives so freely
and didn't worry about execution.
To those who have just fought
in Afghanistan and Iraq.
I prayed you'd all return
and be honored at the dock.
Thanks to all those brave men and women
throughout our countries reign.
Who gave their life to do their duty,
so our freedom could still remain. | By Bernard Howe
