JUNE'S FLAG, by ANNETTE WYNNE First Line: June flung her flag out Last Line: And wave on so forever, bright flag of the free! Subject(s): Flags - United States; Freedom; Summer; American Flag; Liberty | ||||||||
JUNE flung her flag out Shining wet with dew, Red and white the clover And a sky of blue! June sang a song to the flag of the free, The wind caught the music and sang it to the tree, The sky caught the music and sang it 'cross the sea; The sea caught the music and flung it round the world; Then a million flags like June's flag were instantly unfurled, So sing on forever, O wind, and sky, and sea, And wave on so forever, bright flag of the free! | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...LOVE THE WILD SWAN by ROBINSON JEFFERS AFTER TENNYSON by AMBROSE BIERCE QUARTET IN F MAJOR by WILLIAM MEREDITH CROSS THAT LINE by NAOMI SHIHAB NYE EMANCIPATION by ELIZABETH ALEXANDER CHRISTOPHER COLUMBUS by ANNETTE WYNNE |
