America
The land of the free
Where my voice
Is heard
From east to west
And north to South
The red, white and blue
Sing volumes
To other nations
We are free
And proud of
Our heritage
For we can vote,
Raise a family,
Or if were lucky
Hold office
Without fear
Red the color of rose
The same drop of life
In all of us
The symbol help
Is on the way the
Red Cross
White the color of
First fallen snow that
Laces the ground
Blue the color of
Lakes, streams and oceans
That brings water to
Our nation
The stars in the flag
Show, if all 50 states
Stand together
Nothing can penetrate
The soul of America
For United we
Stand
In honor of
Those who
Serve our
Country and
Our flag
May our flag
Bring hope, passion
And most of all
Freedom

- Wow that's amazing. Nice similes, they really illustrate the meaning of the American flag and how much it means to the citizens of this great country. 5/5!

- Technically, we do not have freedom. Free men still walk with chains. Good poem though, especially how you expressed your patriotic feelings...Even though I am not patriotic I respect your poem.

- I may not be American, but I can still appreciate the sentiment of this poem. I think you've done a great job of bringing together the real feel of patriotism.
