OUT OF THE ASHES
By Karen Green, Army
Writing Type: Poem
Out of the ashes
our flag was raised,
while rescue workers
were shocked and dazed.
Among the rubble
she was found,
and they raised her up
on a pole from the ground.
Though battered and tom
she proudly waved,
above the rubble,
above heroes' graves.
A sign
that America won't fall,
and like in all other wars,
Old Glory came through it all.
