most beautiful woman in the world

Most beautiful woman in the world (12/21/11)

She is the most beautiful woman in the world.
Yet ! She doesn’t have fancy clothes, or makeup.
She doesn’t even have a first name, nor does she speak.
But people come from all over the world just to see
Our beautiful MISS LIBERTY.

She sits in our harbor and greets all human race
From the air , land, or from the sea
She has become a part of me.
She fills every heart with a warm glow
And day to day she puts on a show.

She stands on a mound with her arm held high
Holding freedoms torch to the sky.
Her robe is the robe of justice
And she wears it quite well
Look at her closely and you can tell.

Freedom is not really free - for you may
Have to fight for liberty
Just open your eyes and look around
Communist nations have fallen to the ground
Arab countries are fighting for their rights
And it is a long and perilous flight
But freedoms bell will forever ring
it is the one and only lasting thing.

The Statue of Liberty rings with freedom to every shore throughout our great country.Hopefully it will continue to be so,as our country has changed and begun to close the door on God and changing policies within it's hold.I pray God does not turn away the blessings to this country.Good write.

The Statue of Liberty still remains as a hope of human dream and aspirations , free from the shackels of religious and racial persecution ! But this new breed of terrorists and fundamentalists who kill in the name of religion , should be hurled down into the deepest dungeon ! Thanks , -Raj

Unfortunately, you are dreaming. America, the once beautiful the nation that stood for freedom and all other great things, is fast becoming a Nazi state thathas turned against its own people. The worship of wealth is responsible and it is too late to undo the damage or to stop the train. Great while it lasted, gone forever.
