Excellent story you have written. As I looked at the picture, I could see the inspiration coming. What could be better than having the same birthday as our wonderful country. Truly enjoyed reading it.
My father's fathers, first came to America back in 1607, and we have been living and dying for our country ever since. My 8th great-grandfather, John Thomas Clark, gave his all in 1623 in an American Indian attack outside what was Jamestown.
They raise the flag with weary hands
Battles won in burning sands
Protecting home from evil ways
Standing strong throughout the days.
We honor them the way we should
For doing only what they could.
Let's not squander what they’ve done
Holding fast to all as one.
Treasure freedom to live and breathe
To practice all what each believes.
We raise their flag with grateful hands
A welcome home from distant lands.
