A+ A- |
First the unfolding whisper of a prelude,
Tickling the ear before blooming into a brilliant firework
A siren's song
Pulling forth a silvery voice
Pools of light tainted with deep shadow cascade into the air
Blending my melody with rosy notes
My fingers flutter with my heartbeat
Pulsing under stars and stripes
Ripples swim through the flag
Echoing our unity
A clear dewy web
Weaving our starlit souls together
Scarlet blood of faithful free
Binds the crystal threads
Glossy tears of cerulean
Seal the horizons of ocean and sky
Snow and pearly innocence
Instills wonder at our pure foundation
Life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness
Residing in my heart, a patriotic song resonates
My pride and trust
Spill over in a pledge of loyalty to freedom and belief in justice
A vow to dance in the sunshine and light torches in the night
I will celebrate forever
Such glorious Liberty flows through my starlit soul
