Hi Gershon, You've penned a good verse in remembrance of that horrific day. Twenty years later and it's something that we can never forget-Alexis

You're right. It makes no sense that some can forget Sept. 11 within 20 years. They must have disposable hippcampuses in their brains. :) gw

A dark day for humanity Gershon, not only united Americans like Milton said but the whole civilised world stood with you. Tom

And looking back, perhaps the greatest tragedy is how we've squandered that unity. Thanks, Tom

I don't think I will ever forget...and long for the national unity we experienced right after 9/11.

Me, too. In retrospect, that unity was our greatest gift. If we had only treated it as such... ~ Spilled Milk, no use Crying
