"Tomorrow Belongs to Me " and YOU



And the night shall be filled with music,

And the cares that infest the day
Shall fold their tents like the Arabs
And as silently steal away.
~Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, The Day Is Done

When did it fall out of fashion to be demonstrative in our public display of love of country?  Save for a few times a year, many seem to shy away from letting the whole world know how proud they be to live in this country.

I fly the emblem of our country at home 365 days a year and will freely admit that I like to hear patriotic music played at home oft.

What do I know, I am but an old geezer who gets wet of eye when I hear a group of school children recite the "Pledge of Allegiance".
