A NEW Poem About OLD Glory

June 15, 2018December 2, 2021 / Greg Asimakoupoulos

What does Frances Scott Key have to do with Flag Day?

Francis Key
would help us see
this is a banner day.
For he would bring
a means to sing
of that for which we prayed.

This Key unlocked
a means to talk
about what makes us free:
The untold price
of sacrifice
that bought our liberty.

Happy Flag Day!
