Array ( [sid] => 38459 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Land of the free [time] => 2004-03-13 09:38:15 [hometext] => This is dedicated to the men and women who fight so bravely for our country. Even freedom has it's cost. [bodytext] => We live in a place
That’s called the land of the free
But when I look out at each and every face
There are things I begin to see

Our freedom isn’t quite so free
When you think of what it is paid
It comes from people giving so unselfishly
And how they fight for freedom unafraid

Because they love this land of ours
They are willing to pay the price
To keep this country free from tyrants and czars
They, their very lives will sacrifice

So Remember we are the land of the free
Because they were willing to sacrifice
And I am sure you will agree
We must remember to say thank you, for those who pay the price.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. Â©
