Being Nonplussed Poem by RoseAnn V. Shawiak

Shadows of our national flag waving in the wind against
a building at the senior center.

Watching the flag itself furl and unfurl at the whim of
a wind trying to show it's in command of the situation.

Not realizing that our flag is flying freely and indep-
endently of it, signifying the freedom we have here in
the United States Of America.

Nonplussed by what the wind may think, just standing up
for what we Americans believe in.
