Time whispers their names,
sings their praises.
Each day...new heroes emerge.
The wives, the little ones born,
the mothers, fathers, grandparents,
the firefighters, the policemen,
who carry on, walk one step
at a time.Missing the smile
of a Daddy, the footsteps on
the doorstep never heard, again,
a child's happy feet racing
through the rooms of a house.
The memories pouring over, running
down into the heart.Breaking
upon the sea of tears,
cried into the oceans of
grief.The kiss of sunlight
settling on tear stained cheeks.
Tomorrow, yesterday...flashes
of time, glimpses of a year
left in the ashes of September 11th.

Lost, songs singing~~~
If only we could turn back time
~~~if only, if only~~~

Ivy
and what a heartfelt tribute this is:

Missing the smile
of a Daddy, the footsteps on
the doorstep never heard, again,
a child's happy feet racing
through the rooms of a house.

bitter memories indeed

(big hugggsssssssss) God Bless You, dearest friend, that is what tears me up most on this day, only hoping our children are reached out to with love and they can respond through their tears with love and comfort! (wipes tears) This is angelic writing from your golden heart, sweet friend, I send angel comfort hugs your way, we will always remember, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Ivy, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton
