Sewing in the Significance

The stars and stripes flow in the breeze Gently swaying while the colors collide. The vivid hues of red, white and blue, Curving while the wind constructs a majestic pursuit. The red is like the pride of a soldier, Standing with courage and honor on the battlefield. The blue moves like the waves of patriotism through our nation, Bottomless like the depth of the ocean. The white illuminates the purity of the stars in the night sky, As they reach up to the heavens of freedom. Heroes rise and fall for her everyday, Students stand on their feet to show her respect. We give our loved ones up for the stripes of red and white, And the stars that glisten in the blue backdrop. All for a nation that offers all equality, Where freedom is proclaimed in the name of the flag.
