"I Pledge Allegiance" By. Alexis Harris

The American flag,
Red, white and blue.
Fifty stars,
Thirteen stripes,
Dancing gracefully in the wind,
Like angels wings across the heavens.
A lonesome reminder of our countries freedom and strength.
So small and yet so big.
I stand under it with my hand to my heart,
Alongside other students and teachers.
The dew on the grass wipes against our shoes.
There's a slight breeze in the air.
It's cold out,
But still we stand,
Uniting together,
Pledging allegiance,
To one nation under GOD,
With liberty and justice for all.
The student body reciting a special promise,
A swear to be true to our country.
A swear to our flag,
The American flag.

This was written by my daughter Alexis for her portfolio in school. It is beautiful.
