Eagle Of America Poem by Britney Hogue

Up in the great sky
I see with my eyes
A brave eagle that flies
Along among the clouds
Being watched by crowds
Of most curious people

Aloft it’s so graceful
Bringing atmosphere of peaceful
Making all so grateful
Being so brave and strong
Even when things are wrong
Even when the wars cripple

If it’s wings become battered
It wouldn’t much matter
She would still be the better
The most unconditional lover
And the best overall mother
For her children who are feeble
