When storm clouds arrive and danger is near,
an eagle will rise overcoming his fear.
The vision to journey where few ever dare,
chasing the dream on a wing and a prayer.
A symbol our Nation proudly adores,
the magnificent beauty of an eagle that soars.
On the wings of eagles, hope takes flight,
with conviction, honor, and the courage to fight.

Is it any wonder why this stunning bird was chosen as a symbol of Americana and all that we represent? Wonderful write!!!

Symbolic in many ways!
I have heard it said that an eagle will fly up to the rocky cliffs when old age starts to set in and bang his beak on the rocks until, lo and behold a new beak is revealed behind the old one, same with the feathers....I pray it is this way with our Nation as well!
Good write Kevin,
I love that scripture...
