Patriots




It was a sea of Patriots as far as the eye could see.
Awe inspiring, sending chills up your spine.

With one voice, they exclaimed excitement for the moment,
Annoyance with their leaders, and love for Country.

Like a deep rumbling of thunder, rippling across the lawn,
“Can you hear us now?” crescendos through the crowd.

Voices from the stage motivate and encourage,
With words, song, and even some rap.

But the most moving of all was the sound heard from
Capitol to Mall of “God Bless American” sung by all.

Wow~ Your poem captures the excitement I'm sure was present in Washington. Is this the walk you guys participated in? I can't believe how many people showed up there.

Or, is this the protest to the health care plan? Either way this looks exciting. Hope all is well. Have a great day.

And, thanks for stopping by my blog. It's greatly appreciated... you too, Scott!
