FLAG DAY


According to my "easterseals" calendar
today is flag day.
We in the Davidson household are 
old school when it comes to the flag.
I'm the first one up in the mornings so I put it up,
Dad takes it down every evening around dusk.
We try not to let it touch the ground,
but when you're 92, accidents happen.
It stays dry on the porch, when rain
is in the forecast.

The flag is a symbol that I hold dear
but what I hold more dear than the fabric alone,
are the principles behind the flag.
Red/Valor
White/Liberty
Blue/Justice, Loyalty, Perseverance 

So, if you want to bend the knee
its alright with me
but I'll stand as long as I can.


Show your colors today.

  1. Can I just say what a relief to seek out somebody who truly knows what theyre speaking about on the internet. You positively know how to deliver an issue to mild and make it important. More people need to read this and understand this side of the story. I cant believe youre not more well-liked since you definitely have the gift. online casino
