~ The Eagle ~
The Eagle flies
across America.
The beauty of this bird stands for our freedom
I am very proud to gaze upon this work of art
In times of peace or when we are at war
Our American Eagle stands tall.
The wings are so wide
They look like they can touch the sky
I look for this very close friend
In the hope we will all live again.
If I could fly with The Eagle
What wonders I could see
Through all of America, in every state
The Eagle flies
with such grace
It brings a tear to your eyes.
I wonder why this land
and all that it stands for
Is like an Eagle in flight
Why God chose to put His special care,
In this country and in this people
We are all one,
We come from all walks of life,
In times of trouble,
We come together and soar like The Eagle on
high.

Do you remember me
The people's poet
"But they that wait upon the Lord
shall renew their strength;
they shall mount up with wings as eagles;
they shall run, and not be weary;
and they shall walk, and not faint.
Isaiah 40:31
