"one love gone wrong is one step closer to your true love"

Her stars shine bright so high in the sky,
Her strips create a tight woven band.
So glorious and majestic, she will fly,
She brings us as one across the land.
So mighty and proud she stands so tall,
Encouraging everyone to stay strong.
She guards and protects us so we do not fall,
And is careful to see that nothing goes wrong.
We sing and stand proud to her every morning,
Everywhere you go you know she cared.
And for years to come she will be soaring,
She proves to everyone to not be scared.
From graceful lands to seven shining seas,
She will always fly high like she is meant to be.

&quot;You know you&rsquo;re a writer if your friend tells you a heartbreaking story and your first reaction is &ndash; wow, that would make an incredible plot for a novel. You know you&rsquo;re a smart writer if you manage to keep that reaction to yourself.&quot;
