This has nothing to do with welding but it seems like I know you guys so well so when I saw what my son had done I wanted to share it with someone. He is in the eigth grade and I had no idea that he thought of things like this much less wrote about them. These days you wonder about our children and what will happen to our country when they take over, maybe there is hope yet.
WHO AM I"
I sit up high upon my throne,
And ponder upon the days gone by,
I whip, and crack, and snap about,
As the wind goes round and round.
I represent faith, glory, and hope,
I'm a symbol for millions,
I'm like the men that fight for you,
Except i've never fought a war.
On days of sad and mornful thoughts,
I'm lowered to my knees to cry,
Though I have no face or limbs,
Many people see me as another guy.
Sitting high I start to sing,
A song of great pride and honor,
I'm red, white, and blue throughout,
But ask yourself, who am I?
