Something we can understand
Have you ever wondered were the Star Spangled Banner came from, well I know I have. The Star Spangled Banner was written by Francis Scott Key who was in a ship while Fort McHenry was being attacked by the british. Francis Scott Key decided to write a poem about the sight. It is know known as are national antham.
Translated Song:
Can you see by the early morning lights.
We happiallycheared at the last gleam of bright light.
The big colors and stars, went through the tough fight.
Over the mounds, we wondered if they were stll flowing.
Rockets filled up the sky, and bombs filled the air.
We found our flag still there.
Does that banner still wave.
The land of freedom and the home of braveness.
