“We have a republic, if you can keep it!”
to quote Ben Franklin, a founding father;
patriotism was his badge of honor.
Immigrants come, none desire to leave;
she’s flawed, yet best free country to claim —
ours is a republic, if we can keep it!
Paid agitators stir up trouble to divide,
we must hang together (or die separately)
to quote Ben Franklin, our founding father
Let’s observe America’s 250th birthday,
celebrate together stars & stripes forever
since patriotism is a badge of honor!
The cascade is not a difficult form to understand. You will use each line from your first stanza in subsequent stanzas. For example, if your first stanza is three lines, your will have four stanzas. The first line of your first stanza becomes the last line of the second stanza. The second line of the first stanza becomes the last line of your second stanza, and so on. – Merril hosts MTB at dVerse
