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 quell 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 Originally posted 9-13-01 When the power of love overcomes the love of power the world will know peace. -Jimi Hendrix [This message has been edited by vlraynes (09-11-2003 01:51 PM).] |

![]() (big hugggsssssss) God Bless You, dearest friend, yes, we all must be heard together, as one voice sung together can be heard for everyone and echo across all the world and heal and comfort our childrens and victims hearts! (wipes tears) We will always remember and we will always sing aloud in this circle, God Bless You, it made me cry seeing also that your signature happens to be one of my favorite quotes of all time that I hold dear to my heart and wish for everyone to, you are a true comfort to all, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Vicky, thank you for sharing! ![]() May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton I don't need no proof when it comes to God and truth |

Yes, we need to stand united...maybe that is the one and only uplifting thing we can hold onto through this experience...the fact that it HAS united Americans, and opened our eyes. Vicky, this is a wonderful write, and I share your feelings...~S~ Accept these small gifts from my gypsy heart ~~S~~ |

Vicky~ This morning I thought of the hours you and I spent emailing back and forth during the days and nights following the horrific events of September 11, 2001. How difficult it was for us to find our words of expression~ Such sad, sad memories~ This poem, and many others, finally came about by our need to express how we felt~ Poignancy-in-thought, still this day, dear poetess~ *Huglets* ~*Marge*~ ~*When the heart grieves over what it has lost, |
