I am…

I am the flag that stands for a nation.

I am red,

I am white,

I am blue.

My stars represent my people.

My stripes represent my past.

I flow freely in the breeze

a powerful reminder of what I stand for.

I weep for the men and women that have fought for me.

I am draped over them with pride.

I hear the bands playing as I am saluted

I see the hands as they are proudly placed over hearts.

I feel the canons blast,

I am free.

I am the flag that stands for a nation.
