The American spirit is in our veins
though stepped on,
we are not crushed
forever we'll say
in God we trust!

We'll not rest in a reign of tears
we choose to rise above our fears
we'll ride on freedoms crest
as waves of evil bite the dust

Free as an eagle
we swiftly soar
on wings of hope
over beautiful shores
rising in winds of American pride
pushing evil doers aside
Rise America,
for freedom wins!

Red White and Blue...flowing thru.
great to see you here poetess Deb...
thank you for the pep rally  

Here I stand like it matters...
once love is through-it gets scattered by the rain
and pain gives me the right to be unkind ...
