Sounds of sorrow on the winds
I hear cries of yesterday
and though we face this terror
our unity is here to stay.

The screams of horror filled the air
with a deadly, erie sound
yet still we stand united
feet planted firmly on our ground.

Our nation will not be diminished
our resolution will never sway
for as a people we are America
and as a united country
we will never go away.

If they think they have succeeded
my friend they sadly are mistaken
for all they've managed to accomplish
is the heart of America they have awakened.

If I have touched one heart through my words, then I have acheived my dream...

(big hugggssssss) God Bless You, sweet friend, yes they have failed and together we will rise as we pray for those hurt by the attacks with losses and tears! (sad sigh) God Bless America, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Donna, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton
