Promise
The following poem was written by Susan W. Brandt of Owego, NY, and was included in the program for her son's Eagle Court of Honor.
Promise
Mighty eagle, freedom's symbol,
My heart swells to see thee fly.
Stretch toward heaven, lift me with you.
We both seek a home on high.
Child within me, be an eagle!
Ever honor sacred quest.
Lofty dreamer, make dreams happen.
Choose today to be thy best!
