The American Flag Means Freedom
by Luke Sanders

    I consider freedom when I see this American flag.  The colors to me stand for freedom and justice, because I catch sight of soldiers saluting for liberty in front of the honored flag.  Outside my house I hopefully gaze at this honored flag, and at boy scouts it helps us remember we are a free country.  How do I feel when the inspiring flag waves in the dim light of morning?  Gradually feelings of gratefulness and patriotism pierce through my heart.  I stand transfixed.  Reflecting on the army men who fight in Iraq and our President causes me to remember all the wars, the united and the un-united, the love and the liberty.  Best of all, the American flag stands for the freedom, strength and unity of the American people.
