America is a beautiful land we can not afford to lose.
We have the right to be who we want to be.
We can live our lives however we choose.
Unlike what some people say, freedom is free.
It is free from the turbulent grey ocean of the Atlantic,
So cold, deep, fertile, and unforgiving.
To the tranquil, warm beaches of the Pacific,
So friendly, peaceful, calm and living.
You can breathe in the freedom from a sweet prairie gust.
You can feel the freedom atop the brisk snowcapped mountains in the West.
You can smell the freedom on an infant’s skin, curled beside his mother’s bust.
It does not matter what you believe, just know that we are blessed.
To have the freedom we fought for, gives us the right to stand proud and tall.
We have the right to be one nation, under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all!

- I meant the revolutionary war. We won our freedom from Britian.

- good!! But don't you contradict yourself when you say "The freedom we fought for" because you are saying we had to pay a price for freedom, so freedom isn't free...Just a thought. Nice poem though! 4/5
