Old Glory

*** & --- 4ever

Old Glory flows proud on her mast

her colors a sign of our past

from dawn’s early light

to the darkest of night

her stars and her stripes will hold fast

A wonderfully patriotic write for Flag Day, Rita. I was disturbed that the holiday is not really mentioned nowadays. This is the best country in the world in which to live....I am convinced of that. Lydi**

Living with an Army vet and Independence Park Ranger, we do not easily forget flag day... Thanks, Lydi.

[Lydia Shutter]

That's for sure! No one should!

[Sheila Kline]

[Rita L. Sev]

Thanks, Sheila!

We are not perfect, I can be completely frustrated with Washington and our ridiculous worship of the second amendment but that flag and what she stands for still makes me be proud to be an American. I don't believe I would want to call any other place home.

[Rita L. Sev]

I agree, Blue. We are not perfect, but on we strive... Thanks for reading!

Oh yeah baby, nothing represents our free country like the beautiful flag… too bad these days they are made in China.

[Rita L. Sev]

I absolutely will not purchase an American flag that was made anywhere but in the USA - not easy to find, though! :) Thanks, Dale!

[The Rock And Roll Cowboy(REBEL WITH A CAUSE)]

No kidding, we sold them at Sears when I worked for them… all from CHina, so sad.

happy flag day to you Rita...

i hope someday we will really feel proud to wave that flag again...seems these last years...we have had to force ourselves to feel the same patriotism we used to long ago...the name is fitting isn't it?

"Old Glory"

we need some New Glory.

[Rita L. Sev]

Yes, new glory would be nice... I love the flag, and what she stands for... I just wish more people would stand for the same values... Thank you, Jacob
