Freedom
January 28, 2009
I am sitting
were a child once did
and were a mother treasured him
in here limber and weak arms
I am standing were a soldier once did
keeping watch over the night
to keep those below safe
in the Alamo
I am walking
where brave men gave there lives
to give us what we have today
and where the symbol of freedom
once flew in the wind
I still believe in that freedom
Do You?
