The flag of the nation

The soles of his feet
carries the foundation of his nation
the rhythm of his heartbeat
aligns his promise to his nation
The strength in his legs
carries the weight of a nation
the clench of his fists
guards his loyalty to his nation
The look in his eyes
sees his duty to his nation
the stand with his allies
builds a bridge to his nation
The flag on his shoulder
carries the face of his nation
the pose of this soldier
is the pride to his nation
He is the first line of defence
He is the symbol of protection
He is the nation’s incense
He is the symbol of dedication
The flag of the nation
