Among us there lays a coward.
He took his life along with many others
who did not deserve to die.
They thought it would destroy us but
only made us stronger;
In this fight against those who
plotted this ill fated flight upon
this nation,all that she stands for.
We are a nation of power and strength.
We will not stop till the guilty are
found,punished for the crime of
murder upon this nation's homeland.
A nation belonging to you,to me.
This is our country,our home and
the land of the free.

Even though I live with my husband in England, I am American through and through, and share all the feelings you wrote into this poem of strength!  Bravo... ~S~

Accept these small gifts from my gypsy heart  ~S~
