I found these words clear, strong, descriptive and interesting. The poem
flows and connects well. The color scheme and presentation are
awesome! I pondered on these words and present times. The artwork
goes well with this poem. Have a wonderful weekend!....Maria

Interesting concept. The stanzas are strong with good wording. I was thinking how we need all the teachers in our nation to stand and rebuke the colleges who allow Anti- American professors to tare down what we the parents have taught our children
Thank you.

Mrs. Roger,
This is an excellent poet. Personally it felt very patriotic...that may just be your photo though! This poem was really well-written. Congrats on a great piece.
Cheers,
A.Fortier

Hi Yevette.

I like the meter you used in this poem. It moves quickly and the rhyme is very well done. This must have been a blind entry contest. I didn't see it before.

Good luck in the contest.

"The eagle cries again" is a superb, symbolic expression for how events in society challenge what we SAY we are. We don't always act like the home of the brave and the free! Your poem has moved me.

I've struggled with the word "freedom" some use it like confetti, and about as useful to its meaning. Like the crop of present day protestors or looters, firebugs, destroyers of property, I think for them anarchy is a better word. Beautifully beautifully and skilfully written dear Yvette, in wonderfully rhymed triplets, well done, blessings Roy
