Golden Shore

Give me your tired, your poor
Should we build a bigger fence, shut the door?
These are the same that volunteer to fight our war
These, our brothers and sisters of the same rapport
Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free
United, though we dont always agree
The pursuit of happiness we guarantee
The King of heaven has issued this decree
The wretched refuse of your teeming shore
The great national seal, we all make the eagle soar
Our brave soldiers, honor and sacrifice we adore
Send these, the homeless, temptest-tost to me
Land of the brave, home of the free
My country tis of thee, Sweet land of liberty
From sea to shining sea
I lift my lamp beside the golden door!
This beautiful land with its golden shore
Gods country, brothers and sisters come; explore
The United States of America, Remember; why we fight
The Statue of Liberty, her torch shines bright
Its We the people, not the political left or right

| Wow, I really loved your write. I joined the military about a half year ago and this war is still fairly new to me. Sometimes I wonder what it is I'm really fighting for but reading this helped me put it in a new perspective. Thank you :) |
