WHY I LOVE the UNITED STATES of AMERICA I love her wide open big skies her prairie lands her Golden Shores her Scales of Justice her sense of humour her open arms Our Grand Lady Liberty my Grandmother met as she came through the gates 1899... Freedom to worship as one pleases or not to. To have people from every nation of the world living free within her borders... For the opportunity to achieve great heights if one wishes I am proud to be an American... to say The Pledge of Allegiance to the Flag to honor her FLAG and treat her with care... I am proud of her, my nation, my homeland... AMERICA the LAND of the FREE and the BRAVE.

Why I Love My Country I love her magnificent majesty Her colors: RED, WHITE and BLUE from her mighty mountain peaks to her delta lows and the way her mighty rivers flow Her frozen land of glaciers to her deserts barren and cold I love my mighty country on whose rocky roads I've run I love her Pride and Pomp I love her patience not to tromp I love her freedom, she lets me be me with responsibility and the SISU to pay the dues to take care of me at all times, but should I need a hand, she is grand and lends a hand up -not a hand out She said, I could have an education that I would have to work for it no one would hand me my grades It's a prudent decision she has made... I love her, because I can run through the roses at three a.m. and dream of faraway lands Be happy in my skin Oh, yes, I love my homeland She is Grand
