Notes About The Poem

9-11 : a Day of Infamy - the Chain Poem Style

~9/ll: A Day Of Infamy~ 
(Chain Poem Style) 



September eleventh is a day 
Day of infamy that I'll never forget 
Forget what with my horrified eyes I watched 
Watched coming from my TV screen and that re-played 
Re-played showing airplanes flying and hitting straight 
Straight into the Pentagon and the Twin Tower buildings 
Buildings all around just started to sway and fall 
Fall and bringing around so much destruction and death 
Death took so many by surprise 
Surprise and horror was shown on all faces as we witnessed 
Witnessed and faced before us all this horrible tragedy 
Tragedy that filled our hearts and souls with unbearable sorrow and pain 
Pain as we saw all this unfolding before our very eyes as we cried 
Cried with much grief as we watched in horror all this happening 
Happening back then and no one able to stop it that fateful day 
Day of so much destruction horror sadness and sorrow 
Sorrow and loss that took place that September eleventh day 
Day in which we saw innumerable heroic acts of love faith and courage 
Courage of spirit hope and love for many who faced death 
Death and destruction on this very  black and unforgettable 
Unforgettable day September 11, 2001.
