I wrote this all those years ago, that fateful day after September 11, 2001. I want to post it in memory of those that we lost, to those that still suffer today, and for those that WILL NEVER FORGET!
The terror of this day,
Will live on in infamy they say.
A modern day Pearl Harbor.
We watched each event unfold,
Shed tears untold,
And faced our own mortality.
Our President has promised Retribution!
Punishment!
To all cowards who would perpetuate
This type of horror.
To the Firemen,
Policemen,
And to those who have given their all.
We will place a special epitaph
On the graves of all of those who fall.
We mourn our dead.
We keep them close in our hearts.
We search for the dead and dying,
To calm the grief in part.
As a Nation We have banded together.
We have offered our hands,
Hearts, Blood and lives.
But most important,
Our Prayers.
That the God,
Of Heaven and Earth,
Cradles and carries
Us all.
