"american's"

Strong, caring, free, life, theres no dought.
As a American thats what were all about.
September 11,2001 they declared war on this day.
Now Americans will make them pay. 
They have hurt us and caused us pain.
Americans wont stop until we know their name.
They tried to break our spirit but they made us strong.
Americans have strength and they were wrong.
Let us stand along side one another.
Americans are sisters and brothers.
They have taken something from each of us.
Americans wont break we're born to be tuff.
The land of the free, home of the brave.
Americans give, Americans save.
Let's bough our heads and pray.
Please dear Lord take these bad memories away.
                 Teresa Skyles/Theoklapoet

This poem was wrote for all those American's that lost their 
lives that horrible day.

You make a good point, Teresa. Although the terrorists tried to humble us with this attack, it served to unite our people and make us stronger. I doubt anyone will ever forget that horrible day. Very patriotic! Love, Carolyn
