Like F-16's guarding Air Force One,
Eagles flew protectively
on either side of the soaring dove;
Below, Old Glory waved across the land
as Americans, differences forgotten,
united in sorrow and, became one;
The delicate dove flew tirelessly,
from corner to corner of this great nation,
unwilling to give in to weariness
until its destination was reached;
And the eagles that defended her
showed a determined strength, and,
a resolve that could not be diminished;
As long as every American stands,
heart to heart and shoulder to shoulder,
The eagles will continue to soar
with the dove;
And peace, will once again, be ours.

So glad to see you here with us Bonnie! Yes, let peace be our guidance, our aspiration. With the strength and hindsight, and clear eyes of the eagle. Peace and Love to you and yours.

Sincerely,
Regina
