The tautness of The Flag Against the bitter wind
Gives comfort to some
The austerity of the pole
Its simplicity
Gives comfort to others
The blue sky behind
Some can see it
It’s always there
For others, it is endless
Blue, grey, white
Maybe red, white, blue
Difficult to comprehend
The Sun shines, but Today - it is not warm
Always there
Hopefully tomorrow it warms

WELCOME FRIEND ~ Thanks for your first poem ~ love it. In the UK wherever we turn the flags are ther to remind us that we are Four Nations
England Scotland Wales & N. Ireland and of course its backdrop the everchanging SKY. It's the same in ther USA ~ the 50 stars~ one for each State in the Union and the stripes the original Founding States ~ The mystery of history ! The American Sky is also consistent but its cloud cover changes every minute. Thanks for caring & sahring ~ BRIAN (UK) ~ please check my poems ~ Thanks B.
I like this. Its a warm poem that doesn't push anything radical. I enjoyed reading it.
I feel sure this isn't about a flag. I dont quite know what but it has some good phrases. Well done
