A poem for a young nation on its Independence Day 2021.

A Young Nation

Our Nation is still quite young, with so very much to learn.
Our Freedom's fragile growth, still leading us to yearn,
for wisdom, kindness, and a willingness to grow,

Mistakes we've made, so history let's not spurn,
but from each error, let Freedom For All gain.
Lift up the Torch of Freedom, so that all may see its glow.

Our Nation is still quite young, with so very much to learn.
But, with careful stewardship, our fledgling course will earn,
A Home we can be proud of, and Our Freedom's lasting flow.
