The American Flag

This is a poem I wrote on June 14, 2010. As you can see, it was written on Flag Day, and this poem was written to honor the American flag. I usually don't write patriotic poems, so this was an interesting change of pace for me. I think this poem turned out pretty well when all was said and done.


We pledge our allegiance
To the flag of red, white, and blue
And every star and every stripe
Has a meaning for me and you


With our hands on our hearts
We show our pride in our country
Honoring those who gave their lives
In order that we can be free
