Proud American Poem by Randy McClave

I am proud and honored to say
I never did usurp the USA,
And unto her never was I a hater
Never to her was I a traitor.
I have always obeyed her laws
And my family answered her when she made her calls,
And if she had asked me in with a whisper or a yell
I would have proudly answered as well.
If in the military she had asked me to serve
I would have with every muscle and nerve,
Unto my my country I will give my all
Until the day that I might fall.
I stand for what my country stands for
Whether in peacetime or even in war,
And this is a certainty and no lie
Patriotically for my country I would die.
If my country asked me to wear a uniform I would
And beside of Lady Liberty I would of stood,
And you can say what you want or can
Because, I am a proud American.
