"remember"

Remember the love of life they once had.
Remember all the husband's wives, moms and dads.
Remember the twin towers that were high as mountains.
Remember as they fell,it was like water from a fountain.
Remember the hurt and all the pain.
Remember the tears when we heard their names.
Remember the strength as we pull together.
Remember will power makes us strong forever.
Remember the children as their hearts were broken.
Remember the parents as the words "we'll miss you" were spoken.

       Remembrance of the souls lost in the 9-11-01 bombing

Day that most Americans who were old enough at the time to remember will never forget. Nicely done work. Keep writing. Sara
