Salute

A Prose that I wrote for one of the Camp Fires that I am in.

This is my country-
I steal a line from John Melencamp's song.
I look at the beauty of the USA.
I take time to salute our country.

George Bush has his work cut out for him.
Stop the war, blood and the pain.
I love and support our troops!
I salute them!

The flag stands for freedom.
The red, white and blue.
Remember Bob Dylan's protest songs?
I salute him, too!

The Viet Nam War,
The men who fought there including my father,
I salute them, too!
Dad made it back but others didn't and I mourn for them and salute them, too!

Hopefully, the war will end someday soon.
Our beautiful land is safe and hopefully will remain that way.
America fights for freedom and a salute is a small token of praise.
Salute! Say a prayer, too. This is our country!{Thanks, John Melencamp!}
