The Symbol of my country


The symbol of my country

Mean more than what I see

A pelican flag is a symbol

That is fierce and strong and free

Our flags that flies across the land

Waves red, white, and blue

It shows our pride in where we live

It stands for freedom, too

Holds a torch in her right hand

She welcomes all to freedom's shore

From every other land

The symbols of our country

Represent the best of who we are

People living free and proud

Shining light both near and far
