The Flag Of Our Destinies Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: AABB CCDD

With our boundaries swung to the circling seas and a nation named to the worldA
And the six starred flag of our destinies on every port unfurledA
God grant from Greed or the dust of sleep or the right by a lie maintainedB
From all save our blood if we must we ll keep the silver and blue unstainedB
-
We yield no praise and we speak no blame for our history s weeds and flowersC
But the work of a hundred years we claim as our father s work and oursC
Through peace to prosper or war to save wherever the future runsD
May God make noble and strong and brave the hearts of our father s sonsD
