My Family America

<center>"May we FOREVER remember September Eleven"

My Family America

Our Forefathers knew what they were doing
When they spent hours writing America’s Freedoms
We celebrate with bombs bursting in air
Taking Pride in the Red, White, and Blue that flows everywhere

Solder Boy protecting and taking up arms
Warding off anyone who wants to do Americans harm
America, we are the home of the Brave and carry it with Pride
Known all over the world for being the home of the Free with God on our side

The Wall, a remembrance for those who died
A Memorial for those who fought in a war and lost their lives
Our Military will always be the ones to give their all
Making sure My America will Stand in Pride and Never Fall

Graceful Eagle in peaceful flight Soaring into the great divine
Lady Liberty standing with her Light a Shine
Liberty Bell rings across this land with Freedom sounds
Just a reminder to America’s family with Prideful abound

God will stand beside us…and pull us through
No matter what another Nation or Cowards may do
For America we are Free to be who we want to be
And the terrorist who hates us has NO place in Our Society

Please remember that SEPTEMBER DAY
When America was shaken in an unthinkable way
For the terrorist even made Heavenly Angels Cry
When strangers in planes took away Innocent Lives

What America means to me…

As a Father who protects us from unwelcome Strangers
As a Mother who nurtures and worries about the dangers
As a Friend they are always there when you need them.
She is the GREATEST of all NATIONS and a Blessing to be Born In…

My Family ‘America’

Kathy,
I really like your poem. The words rings so very true.

We should never forgit
that day. I believe it will stay etched in my memory
as long as I live.

To many outside, America is not only a Country it is also is the torch bearer of freedom itself, on which so much of humanity's dreams will rest. A great symbolic tribute.___BeeJay
