Running Wolves Poet Rhyme

Never Forget

Parody of
I guess that's why they call it the blues
Songwriters: Elton John / Bernie Taupin / Davey Johnstone


Don't ever forget
that day, that our lives were taken
let our people recall, how the towers did fall,
and the soul of our nation was shaken.

Don't stumble now
now that you've come so far
remember how, you stood arm in arm
united as one, filled with pride.

Don't let our deaths be in vain
cast out false pride
and remember our names
remember the mothers
remember the fathers
all of the lives lost on that September

Don't tell us that we died in vain.

Don't ever forget
that day, that the world was shaken
let the people recall, how the towers did fall
and the heart of our nation was broken.

Don't stumble now 
stand up and fight for what's right
cause after all, if America falls
who will survive, where evil thrives

Don't let our deaths be in vain
swallow false pride, because we are the same
you are my brother
you are my sister
we are a family, made of all colors

Don't tell us that we died in vain

Sara Kendrick September 26, 2021 at 6:07 AM Creative tribute for those who died, were injured, who have PTSD, who were left handicapped and those who have permanent health problems from that awful terrorist act/s of that day. I enjoyed reading it. I feel for all of those and their families. We all as a nation suffered as we watched it unfold before our eyes. Sara Running Wolves September 26, 2021 at 5:13 PM thank you. It's hard to believe some people want to pretend this never happened or make lite of it as though it was no big deal. we will be seeing more of this in the future...

Becca Teagan September 14, 2021 at 2:34 PM A beautiful tribute, my brother. Love and hugs Running Wolves September 14, 2021 at 4:07 PM Thank you my dear Sister, love and hugs to you too.

Kim Rodrigues September 11, 2021 at 6:33 PM As we look up, as we remember, as we share with the youth, as we gather in friendship as many as will hear. The day was poignant, horrific, scary, our generation’s Pearl Harbor. We must never forget.
