Some children were born with no fathers
They had no fathers
Due to 9/11

Now they grow up fatherless
Because of terrorist
And all they can do
Is see their fathers pictures
In albums
And frames
Their mothers can tell them
Of the good times
When their father was still alive

Those terrorist
Didn't know how lives they
Ruined that day
And I am afraid
They don't care they left
Children with not fathers

We see the mothers on TV
Holding their sons and daughters
Crying
Saying how they wish their children
Could know their father
They had a whole show
On Oprah
Devoted to the children
Of lost men

It makes me cry
To see
That they will never
ever get to meet
Their father
And grow up fatherless

Cold hands means a warm heart

This is indeed, very sad... Julie...
The terrorists are so very evil.

(tears fall down my cheeks) Oh Julie, this is so heartbreaking, it saddens me to see such people take innocent lives and make children have to face these tears! (cries tears) My heart goes out to all of them, sweet friend, God Bless You, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Julie, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton
