Just felt like it's time for a reminder. SKdeV


Poem Artwork



I am a free American
To vote my right and choose
I elect to make a difference
Whether they win or lose
I value all my freedoms
I'll fight with every breath
The foes who tempt this right to live
Until my mortal death
Independence made me
Attitude and all
Fearless Rebel is my spirit
Dignified and tall
I salute my birth with honor
As humble as a dare
As rockets turn red
The bombs burst in the air
To take up a terrorist dare
I am a free American
A little of this and that
Plenty of guts for glory
And free as a matter of fact
For all who tempt to disarm us
May your own dispair guide your tears
When again and again
Freedom still wins
With the Stars and Stripes that you fear.

Great work here. You are a valued exception in the US. Too many of our brainy citizens are so prosperous they haven't studied history enough to know they have enemies who are ready to kill Americans for a slice of that prosperity. Our liberals believe it's about fairness, but there is nothing unfair about keeping our nation the richest and stronest in the world. Should we fail in our 300 years plus of being in that position, we'll take Western Europe down with us. Is this the heritage that U.S. citizen want and deserve for their children's future????? - Bill

Yes, you are a true American, and the rest of us "Americans" need to stand up and show pride in our land once again! Enough of this apathetic, don't care attitude; we'd better start caring or else there's going to be another September 11, 2001, and it may be much worse this go around!! Time to shut the borders and get those who don't need to be here OUT, once and for all!!!!

(((HUGS))) and much love, your friend in Tx., Karen Lynn. :(

You are saying some heavy truth here, but I'm of the mind that we are losing our freedom bit by bit and the end of America as we (used) to know it maybe gone forever . . . I sincerely hope I am wrong, but I know this . . . Nero is fiddling . . .

Beautifully penned inspiration, Susan; thank you! It's time we remember 24/7, 265...not just on certain days when it's convenient.
