"Untitled"
For every mother's cry
of i can take no more
A child questiones why
Our country is at war
The answers they may vary
why we're in this foreign land
with bombs and guns to carry
leaving footsteps in the sand
Is it for the oil?
or for what we all fear
The loss of what we' ve toiled
for with blood sweat and tears
The answer is so very clear
Although it may not seem
it's for what we hold so dear
and for what we all dream
For Freedom that we share
for the red white and blue
to wave among all those who care
Our flag is there for you !
by Peggy A. Briglia February 9, 1991
