Degenerate

I watched a game the other day
That had our men and woman in such away
Bring our flag out and then they played
Our National Anthem and my days woes began to fade
Just when my heart began to melt
I heard some boos, and then I felt
Anger for these degenerates that did
They were adults and not kids
They call themselves Americans
Yet they demean our servicemen
I feel anger and dismay for the direction we are going
For these people act without knowing
That freedoms not free
If theyd open their eyes they would see
That America the Beautiful
Is protected by the brave and the willful
And we cannot do anything but support
And honor those who left port
To give them the freedom
To complain at random
We would be a police state
And not live a life great
Without the devotion
Of those serving over the ocean
To give us peace at night
While they dutifully fight
For they love our country
They left their families for you and me
All we can do is give them our love
And pray to God above
For their safe return
And try to learn
That bad support is no support
Meet them at the airport
And tell them thank You
For they did this for me and you
Thank You my heroes

| Pretty sad to see some degrade the flag. I feel its not just disrespectful to the servicemen and service women but to the great people of the country. Bad support is worse than no support..its demoralizing in a time that its more crucial than ever to show support. Well written poem. K&H |
