Have you seen soaring
majestic eagles wings aspan . . .
with golden~eyed acumen
espying the land ~

Sharp talons extended
closing in on the prey . . .
no mercy to be given
each victim must obey ~

Have you heard their sound
not a song but a scream . . .
when the target's a trout
unsuspecting in mountain stream ~

While down~cover'd eaglets
wait impatiently in their nest . . .
mother's beak offers sustenance
She rarely gets rest ~

Are eagles aware they're
symbols of sweet Liberty . . .
in The Home of the Brave
the Land of the Free ~

From sea to shining sea
spirit of courage~strength~pride . . .
for America the Beautiful
may God's mercy e'er abide!

Dedicated to the memory of
September 11, 2001

So many lives were devastated because of the
deliberate vicious attacks by terrorists on
September 11, 2001.
Our entire nation was attacked, not just
buildings and planes.

Our hearts go out to those loved ones left behind when
so many met their deaths that fateful day.
We are praying Father to give you courage as
the mighty eagle ~ you are always near our hearts.
Love in Jesus,
Maryxo
