We Will Never Forget

9/11  - We Will Never Forget!  

Unbelievably
The mighty towers crumbled
Grieving loved ones prayed
That God had spared their loved ones
While victims jumped from windows!

Today a truth I leave here for you. I wish I had fancy words to write a comment to you but I don't. I did enjoy reading your poetry Beatrice. If I did not enjoy reading your poetry you would not be reading this now. I wish you a wonderful day. Love, Carol

Sad indeed Caryl...I pray to God that we are more prepared next time...for I believe that they will never stop trying to destroy us! Bea
