Today

Today a son misses his father, a daughter thinks about her mother today a mother cries for her son as a father sheds tears for his daughter, 1825 days ago love was lost for millions 52 weeks ago our nation morned, 5 years ago today....today we remember .... we remember the fallen we remember the senseless slaughter. today we will always remember as taps is played on the horn. Today 5 years ago a nation came together 1825 days ago we prayed for one another 52 weeks ago we raised our flag from the ashes, Today we stand and salute those over there, today we look to the ski`s for the ones up there today we think of the ones left alone, Today around the world we relive 9/11 with tributes, vigils on radios in churches in schools with all the stations showing news flashes . today 5 years ago TWTC was turned to stone. Today Americans stand in honor, we pay our respects, and stand united, 5 years ago today tears fell from heaven, 1825 days ago and our anger still has n`t subsided, 52 weeks ago on Nine Eleven.
