A Fresh Remembrance
A Fresh Remembrance
Dr. James E. Martin

Again we approach the memory of when
Radical militants sent us into such a spin.
Over a decade has it now been
Since the occurrence of this horrid sin.
We still are amazed at the evil plight
Of this group that’s bent on a continued fight.
Our hearts ache as we remember the sight
That forever changed that beautiful site.
The war on terror continues still
We swallow often this bitter pill.
Many just thinking about it experience a chill
It’s the basis for many writers’ quill.
Will we in our lifetime see an end?
Will victory ever be finally penned?
The answers are unknown to all, my friend,
Yet freedom and liberty we must continue to defend.
