I'm sitting here at my daughters, at the most hightech computer and couldn't let the chance go by to work at this thing. So this will be my last poem before take off.


Last year I said I wished
That I could be with you
After the twins had fallen
And now this year I do

I'm at Nan's on nine-eleven
I will sit there at seashore
Pondering why it had happened
And my heart will be all sore

Till today I can't figure out
The reason why they had to kill
The innocent people in those towers
But I think I never will

Like scattered leaves...my words will flow

yes, none of us will understand why


insanity has no understanding

Whether on the shoal or on the shore,
I'll seek the lighthouse evermore.

Somehow, it's good to know your feet will be on these shores.

(big hugggssssss) Oh Titia, this is so very sad, I too can't understand how people can do such dispicable crimes and acts like this and my heart will always grieve upon this day as I too hang onto hope for healing to come our way! (sigh) God Bless You, sweet friend, have a wonderful time at Nan's, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Titia, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

I sure hope that I get a chance to see you, Titia...
If we can't get to see you in Fla...
We'll try to get to the Detroit airport on Sept. 30.
