Here Is a poem which should be
memorized by eve y pup. in our pub
lie schools:
Your flag and my flag!
And how II flies today
Ger your land and my land
And half the world away.
Rose red and blood red,
With stripes that CLEAN between
Snow white and soul white
The good forefather's dream.
Sky blue and true blue,
With stars that shine Alright,
A joyous guerdon through the day,
safe guard all the night.
Your flag and my flag |,
And, oh. how much II holds |,
land and my land. |,
Secure within it's folds, |,
-FOUR heart and my heart
Beat quicker at the sight;
and wind-tossed,
Red and blue and white.
rhe n flag-the great flag
The flag for ma and vnu II
