Eight stars of gold on a field of blue - Alaska flag may it mean to you The blue of the sea, the evening sky. The mountain lakes and the flowrs nearby, The gold of the early sourdough's dreams, The precious gold of the hills and streams, The brilliant stars in the northern sky, The Bear - the Dipper - and shining high The great North Star with its steady light, Over land and sea a beacon bright. Alaska's flag - to Alaskans dear, The simple flag of a last frontier. Greetings to Alaskans and Yukoners who blazed the Trail of 98, and all those who followed them to the Land of the Midnight Sun! Sincerley and fraternally yours, Frances and Ringwald Blix From Copper Center on the Richardson Highway
