9/11

The Planes crashing over there
Panic
Mayhem
Terror
All in the air
Smoke and ashes stirring in the cauldron
What is happening to this Nation,not soon to be forgotten

Firefighters
Ordinary civilians
The Mayor
Our military in action
Men and women in Red
Carrying out our wounded in traction
Chaos on her 2nd run
Terrorists are smiling at their Twisted Fun

Mothers
Children
Fathers
Lawyers
Everyone under this for certain Day in Fear
Wondering
Muttering out loud:HOW THE -UCK CAN WE EVER GET OUT OF HERE?!

The Pentagon nearly Gone
I see Osama,Grinning..in the burning Sun
Everywhere,the people tremble
The Old are having trouble
getting themselves out of that rubble
DEAR GOD
WE DO NOT WANT TO BLEED AND ROT
HELP THIS COUNTRY IN DIRE NEED
STAND TALL AGAIN FOR THIS LAND
THAT WE SACRIFICED HARD TO PROTECT  AND FOUGHT

Jesus still loves us this I absolutely know
For his Bible tells us so
Little ones(we)to him belong
Weak today
But,again,to be strong
