Good for the prompt given at that time. Never heard of that word - now we have a new one. It feels strange on the tongue - like we should add a sound "contumely". We just ordered one of the Betsy Ross flags to put up the pole beneath our regular flag - mostly cuz Nike is nuts (in our view).

Bucketlist, You have indeed written this with great respect to your country's flag. Brings out a very fine imagery of the flag. A flag should be honoured as you so aptly said. Good work and hope you are placed well in the contest.

Well done on the use of the rispetto form, good use of blank space to fill in the red, white and blue. And the unfortunate truth of your words. Happy independence day!

    It unfortunately is the way for others to show their anger at this country?s actions. Thanks for reviewing so kindly

Lovely Rispoetto write Trisha about what your countries flag means, what it stands for and the respect it deserves rather than the contumely behaviour it sometimes gets. Great word choice. I found this challenge interesting with all the new, old words we've learnt.
cheers,
valda

A very well-written Rispetto about the stars and stripes flag that are the pride of Americans but still there are many that still have and show disrespect to their country and its flag.

I've learned a new word - contumely. Our flag certainly has taken abuse over the years, especially in modern times. Seems it's all right to burn it these days. Outrageous!

    Anger is rampant without concern in society. It?s disgusting the behaviors seen. Pam, thank you for your positive review. I?m happy you enjoyed my poem
