AMERICA

A is for the ancestors so bold and brave,
M is for the miracles of crops grown well.
E is for the exercise in hand dug graves.
R is for the rich land bought with sweat, callouses and tears.
I  is for the innocent blood shed to build this land in fear.
C is for the courage gained from battles large and small.
A is for the attitude inspired in all for one and one for all.
