America My Home

By: Celeste Moore

Someday I’ll be free to be

Able to believe in me.

Be able to live in a land…free.

No troubles, no cost.

No hard times, nothing lost.

Terrorists are people who put others down.

They hold their lives up,

Then take it down.

Some shoot up people,

Thinking they’ll get an award,

But no there is no award for killing anyone.

God has said, “ Thou Shalt Not Kill”

They have told us that there is no award

 to kill anybody or American.

One day we’ll be free soon enough that life will come.

Where I can talk with the president and

Have tea with the king of Hong Kong.

With no police or guards to track me down

because I took too long.

No one to arrest me

For hanging around with the President.

Tell me to get lost

because the presidents are residents.

No charge! I tell you none that I’d know!

Here in America true love and life flows!

No matter what they do.

No matter how big or strong.

We’ll come together and make this world long!

We’ll fight our way to the last war at dawn.

Oh yes we will cause Americans stay strong!

God Bless America,

The one and truly lovable home.

Soldiers, captains, Army, Navy,

 Pilots bombing, police to FBI,

Firefighters across America,

Thank You for all you’ve done to make this world better.

Just in case you didn’t know,

The twin towers are in Heaven you know!

Some blowing down kisses,

Others watching over us!

SMILING DOWN ON US!

 

Red, White, and Blue

  By:  Jimmy Toolen

Me, myself, and I.

I am free, and you ask why?

Cause I stand up to my American pride.

Cause I am a free American.

How about you?

Do you stand up to the red, white, and blue?

Are you proud of who you are inside?

To know the Statue of Liberty is always right by your side?

So stand up to the red, white, and blue.

I know I do.
