America:Rose

Some hidden meanings...

A dying rose just seems so dreary

With it's fading color it looks so weary

What was once a gorgeous red

Now lay in the dirt, brown and dead

And what of the pure white?

It turned yellow, doesn't look so right

Or the sweetest smelling, innocent blue?

Well that one is now real ugly too

These roses are slowly going crap

Please don't let our country go like that

I do take pride in our own U S of A but I see things that don't make me so proud

Sometimes I take a look at the world around me and I feel great to b alive, sometimes I take a step outside and wonder to myself, "How could we have let this happen?" This is the land of the free but will only stay so as long as it can be the home of the brave. (Got that one from my dad) How are we supposed to be free if we aren't brave enough to stand up for what we believe in, for what we own. We need to work to keep this country strong and I want to help people realize that.
