To some, it has no meaning. To others, it's just a rag or something to be burned in protest. To those who've served, who've done what they had to, right or
wrong, I see you in its broad
stripes: red for sacrifice. White
for honor. You are its stars,
those of you who paid the price
for Freedom to fly the flag,
to pursue life, liberty
and happiness here in the
greatest Nation in the land ---
hoist the colors! Fly them high!
A short story of mine was included in an anthology of short fiction by fourteen of Port Town Publishing Company's authors. It is out of print and no longer available except as a download. Contact me at charlenetess@yahoo.com if you want it.
