~One Voice~ I've tried to find the words today to tell what's in my heart a way to vent...a way to share but how is one to start How do we write the horror of the thousands who were lost How do we pen the terror felt as lives became the cost How do we say "good will prevail- we shall not be defeated" How do we shout with confidence "such acts won't be repeated" How do we quill the anger reaching far beyond the brink How do we spill the endless tears that flow in crimson ink How do we rise up full of pride in silent rage no longer Together, my friends...we must be heard one voice...united...stronger! ~vlraynes "...until you have read the verse on his heart, |

We start out slowly, one hand holding another, reminding all...that we are here for a reason, and we hear, With a Reason... Well done Vicky! Thank you! |

Dear friend, I feel as you do, Perplexed but not defeated. These savages have under-estimated the resilient spirit of this Nation. We will not be divided by these hearless acts, but rather the opposite, we will be a stronger, more unified nation. God Bless America. Thanks for your thoughtful poem. Dennis |

The anger and the madness Has created such a sadness I only know one thing to say We must get on our knees and pray United in our country land Not just one religion at hand One voice is right my dear friend The message is clear that we must send Showing all the world around America's strength we are bound Just pray Cindi God is our inspiration; Words of the heart can be music to our ears |
