Again We Breathe Quieten now my precious child! There'll be no more cries to alarm Just rest a while your weary soul Tonight you sleep devoid of harm We'll think only of the angels touch And softly wonder how they fly Cradled quietly in those loving arms There's no more tears from clouded eye Each life so fragile to be lost Each one a part of the whole But as you pass from this place on Hear the cry of our shattered souls Minds are numbed with pain and fear Yet with each new dawn, again we breathe Nothing left but these useless tears All I can do is pray and grieve I remember... |

I like the softness, the hand holding comfort across the seas. We really are all on one planet, and have such a small space to share in this universe, you would think we would find a way to hold hands, not weapons. Thanks, Eagle. |

We all remember this year, swift in movement slow in tread we remember the fear, the dread We remember why our resolve... we remember and will not dissolve... |

Minds are numbed with pain and fear Yet with each new dawn, again we "breathe" I could not upon reading this. A poem of heart, of sadness and of hope. Incredible! |

Midnitesun ~ I’m glad you felt the comfort, it is what I was trying to convey. And yes I agree with you, perhaps one day it shall come to pass. Sunshine ~ Well said! WhiteRose ~ I thank you, I walk on with hope in my heart. Enchantress ~ God bless us all! Noah ~ We will always remember. |

i think its safe to say that our childrens children will be reading about what happened a year and one day ago. dont worry, it will always be remembered.. the question is, do SOME people WANT to remember it? |
