Remembering September 11, 2001 September 11, 2008

A deed so cruel, so unjust, so unkind.
In disbelief we saw so much,
Knowing death would so many touch.
Our tears were shed, emotions enflamed,
Our understanding and thoughts were drained.
But many found much courage deep,
They gave their lives, now they sleep.
Thus left behind, family and friends,
And many who wonder how to make amends.
Some in anger, some in fear.
War is the word we did often hear.
But American leadership is very strong,
Voices were raised in patriotic song,
A people in crises always do unite,
The scoundrel, the villain, they will fight.
And those with wounds do suffer now,
For you in the future we do vow,
Remembrance, you served your country
When struck by the common enemy.
For in our freedom we do share.
All those who worked with much care,
To rescue all who could be saved,
So many images in our minds engraved.
This day we will never forget,
A remembrance day to beget,
A day our strength to renew,
With blessings, many to accrue!

I will never forget what I was doing and where I was when I heard about the airplanes crashing into the World Trade Center Twin Towers. Let’s hope that we never have a tragedy like that again. ~ Donna
