Purpose Poem by Zachary Clougher

Purpose



Purpose

The heart of the flag is the
Stars.
White stars on the field of blue.

A heart can’t survive without the mind.

The mind of the flag is the
Stripes.
Red and White are the stripes.

With a heart and mind the flag gain purpose.

Purpose,
It defines,
Who we are,
What we are to do,
Where we go,
And the freedom to choose.

So, Choose…
