America the beautiful..

Happy Birthday America.

I adore you for inspiring countless men and women to serve our country and place their lives on the line for the freedoms you give us.


A piece of cloth may merely be
A oily rag, a remnents piece

A dusty towel a dirty shawl
For those to some that have it all

For us and more
For friend and foe

Those stars and strips forever glow
Yet fabric stained or torn or frayed

Our faith in red and blue's not strayed.

So fly it proud, so fly it high
A freedom symbol in your sky

That dirty towel blaze red and blue
They may not see it like we do

Top of sky pole to suits lapel
Fly your flag free...and fly it well.

Happy Birthday America.....may your flag fly forever free.
