Holiday and Holyday Poetry
: Flying Flag by dovemarie

From the house across the street I view
The gloriously flying red, white and blue
Red is for the blood shed;
Our mourned-for dead
White is for purity
And our country's security
Blue is for the Northern soldier's uniform
We fought a four-year storm
The flying flag stands for victory
And sad pages in our history

Author Notes
A poem for Flag Day, tomorrow, June 14. Thanks to Paul G. for artwork.
