Sunday, June 14 is Flag Day.
At 10:30am, there will be a ceremony in Seattle at City Hall at which new citizens will be welcomed, and current citizens will reaffirm their commitment to the values of our country. It's a public event to which everyone is invited.
This beautiful poem was written for the occasion and will be given to people in attendance. It was written by Shoreline neighbor, Talena LaChelle Queen, a Kellogg Middle School teacher of English.
It's a wonderful gift for all of us to read and ponder on this occasion.
