What does the American flag mean to me?
The American flag is amazing. I see it waving at school, in front of businesses, at baseball games, even in my front yard, always flying in the air so gracefully. Red, white and blue, 13 stripes, and 50 stars, wow, it is beautiful. The American flag is also a symbol of what makes America the greatest country on earth. Many Americans died for our flag so we could have liberty, peace and justice for all. For this, I am blessed each time I recite the Pledge of Allegiance. This is what the American flag means to me. God Bless America! |
