The pledge

The pledge

A Poem by outspoken1234
"

" If we ever forget that we are one nation under god... then we will be a nation gone under"~ Ronald Reagan

"
Our pledge for this country is special 
One thing I don't understand 
Is this simple line
"Unto the republic for which it stands, One nation under god"
Are we really under god?
Or have we strayed away 
Seperated ourselves from his guidence 
Why are we taking god out of our government?
It was founded on him. No?
Why are we straying and letting our nation decay?
For this I have no answer
Where is the progress in that?
There isn't any sense in that 
Why say god bless america?
Not just bless america?
Is it because it doesn't make sense?
Is our pledge still our pledge?
Its a pledge 
But the question is 
Is it still our pledge?

That is a good poem full of patriotism and some anger. Why let the nation decay? Why not actually be one instead of merely voicing that we are one? Good repetition. Keep writing.
