American Beauty Poem by C.Ann Penning

The effortless sashay of her silky body in the wind
With vigor and splendor, she draws the eye in

Though silent, her voice can be heard for miles
known from the eldest to the smallest child

Worth far more than diamonds, silver or gold
Her value worth more than we'll ever know

She’s highly respected; greatly protected
Far more beautiful then we ever expected

Dressed so elegantly
In her bright red, white and blues
Gracefully dancing
Her parteners not few

Hardiness and Valor

Purity and innocence

Vigilance, perseverance and justice

A true American beauty among us
