Freedom Today I see animals living free Flying high, birds flew so graceful Deer roaming on the roadside Squirrels dancing in the nearby trees A peaceful feeling quickly came over me Those animals so beautiful and carefree Neither running nor having any worries No terror, No dismay I envy those animals that I see I want that life of freedom for me That feeling of freedom has been taken Flying high and graceful we fear Roaming our nation we have shied For America has been shaken Peacefulness and freedom I cannot see Terrorist have weakened our knees They have shocked the “Land of the Free” September 11th, we have all cried I look to the heavens and ask why? We were invincible; was it a lie? In the billowing smoke the distance I see The Statue of Liberty gleaming at me Holding her torch high for the “Land of the Free” During the attack she stood tall A symbol of freedom for us all American Heroes rising to the occasion Even on doomed flights they were not taken The Firefighters and Police are heroes too Giving their lives for me and you Certain Heroes of this beautiful nation America will over come this tragic event America will raise though this devastation America together and united we still stand “America the beautiful, land of the free” America’s freedom we all demand This horrible scar will always remain Memories left in pure and simple pain Feelings of anguish and dismay I will not forget the souls lost that day Osama bin Laden you must pay!

LarBear~ After listening to our President last evening, I feel we are being guided by strong hands~ 'America will over come this tragic event America will raise though this devastation America together and united we still stand “America the beautiful, land of the free” America’s freedom we all demand' United with the WORLD in seeking to stomp out terrorism all over this globe - we WILL overcome. ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ |

May the whole world never forget that freedom is what your nation stands for and freedom is what your people are willing to die for. Absolutely magnificent. Let us forever remember all those who paid so much for the freedom we have in our lives. Love I leave with you whether it is in your life now or yet the essense of your dreams. |

Hey just remember they can't take away your freedom unless you let them. Dont let them imtimidate you by the terrorists attacks. My thoughts are with you in New York and America I breathe the dust, the dust is me. |
