June 14,2016 Was Flag Day! Poem by Roxanne Dubarry

It was June 14,2016,
only just yesterday,
it was the USA's flag day!

I have written poems
honoring our flag,
commonly referred to
as, OLD GLORY! '

In honor of the fourth of July,1776,
as our beloved country's birthday!
The white on our flag used to
stand for purity and honesty.
They are lost concepts, truly
believe me.

The blue on our nation's flag,
matches our creator's sky.
Bringing tear drops to my
poetic eyes.

The red on our flag,
represents the blood of
our service men and women,
who have died. While
defending our right
to fly- our nation's flag!

Law enforcement officers and fire fighters,
who have bled and died, also are
drapped in our country's flag.

The blood of the martyr's, who have
died include our missionaires,
spreading the gospel of Jesus Christ!
Sending the gospel light both
near and far. Marching onward
Christian solders. Marching out
to war.

With the cross of Jesus going on
before. Honoring to those who
perished on the mission field.
In journey's of mercery.

We should always honor our nation's flag.
Even when postestors and police officers
clash, and die. Emotions of hatred, revenage,
and bitterness run ramphant high!

When shooters and killers shed innocent
blood in honor of their faith- keeping
faith in our country can not afford to wait!

Love in Christ Jesus!
