On a Tuesday in September The day's events, we could not foresee, But like another day, decades ago It "will live in infamy!" For on this Tuesday in September All hell broke loose, or so it seemed, Meant to humble us as a nation And to destroy "The American Dream!" On this day of incredible loss For many, came the end of the world, By unconscionable terrorist attacks Whose multiple assaults were hurled! On this day in September The 21rst Cent'ry came of Age, Showing increasing instability Prompted by godless men in their rage. This day will be one etched in Blood This saddest of days in September, When America's security was brutally raped-- This darkest day, we will remember! [GOD HELP US ALL!] [This message has been edited by deleeme (edited 09-11-2001).] |

Yes, may God help us all, and God help the sick minds who could think up such horror to dish out on innocent people! You expressed your thoughts supremely well, here, and I appreciate them all. Thank you for this one! The road goes on forever, and the stories never end... [This message has been edited by Sunnyone (edited 09-11-2001).] |

Yes, Let us be now humble in his power, but never that of a terrorist. So sad David, and clinging to him. I know more now in the face of tragedy, but still I will. Thank you for sharing this. Hugs! Sincerely, Regina |
