The Good Old Usa

This country is young when compared to some A prodigy though now I do declare A one time she took in all that would come Then said go west explore this land so fair There were inventers here like Edison, Tesla and Bell, writers like Clemens too It's a land were freedom has surely come It's a country were I can worship true Sometimes we have spats like any family But we come out stronger then we were 'fore To build a land that so many envy That guards are needed so our borders secure I love this land that I have always known It is were I cherish what I call home 8/31/18 Entered in the "Your" Country Tis Of Thee Poetry Contest and the New Sonnets Only Poetry Contest.
