My America
November 24, 2015
In her nurturing cradle
The Lady Liberty has held me
This is my America
Eternal, beautiful, and free
My muse an inspiration
Lies in the symbol of freedoms call
If it is for the better of my America,
I would give my all
Under those Stars and Stripes
Many have perished and decayed
Forever I’ll be grateful
This is the land of the free, because of the brave
My world is tinted.
I see only in red, white, and blue.
In her nurturing cradle
The Lady Liberty has held me
This is my America
Eternal, beautiful, and free

This piece is inspired by my deep love of our country. I hope that people will feel patriotism that I have poured into these words and my appreciation for all that Ameica has given me.
