Intro To September 11th

My son sat down his children
To explain, a little bit,
About the day the Towers,
In 2001, were hit.

Their school sends daily messages
To watch upon a screen.
Today’s contained a reference
To what this date should mean.

My grandkids (5 and 7)
Never heard of this before.
Their father, very gently,
Opened up that looming door.

With just the bare essentials,
But the horror kept

September 11th

Through charcoal ash covered sands of time in history September 11th, 2001 we'll never forget
Brave men and women quick to help without thoughts of regret
So many watched on t.v, faces streaming with tears
Some prayed like crazy for loved ones hoping no one would confirm their greatest fears
First tower struck, struck fear in our hearts
Still, communities

Tribute To September 11th

Its been 14 years ago 
Its still hard to believe
That so many lives were taken
Still so many families to grieve
On a normal day as this
People trying to make a living and go to work
Not knowing on this day our hearts would experience so much hurt
A sad day yes it was 
Cruel people hurt our nation

A Prayer For September 11th

My God,
You call us to be faithful--
though we stumble, though I fall short,
do not turn a deaf ear to my prayer.

They came into our country cloaked in deceit,
striking down the innocent.
They took lives not theirs to take,
and now we go to shield the faultless,
while they return our goodness with vileness.

Let Satan chastise their cruelty.
When judgment

The Year of September 11th

The Year of September 11th

The year of September 11th
The year my mother died
The year the World and I
Both sat down and cried

The World, for all its tragedy
Its rubble and debris
I, for the mom who late at night
Once rocked me on her knee

The World it lives life different now
It’s cautious and afraid
I just don’t know how

September 11th

What is hidden in your heart all these years later
Is there regret for what happened then
it feels like the world died that day
A world we knew and   understood

Some of us  have chosen to forget 
Some have taken their own life full of despair
If tragedy struck again

Would we be prepared and save the

Cain and Abel of September 11th

On September 11th, 
In the early morning, 
When my train stopped 
In the New Jersey fields,
I saw the Twin Towers.
Painted by sunrays
Into a golden tone, they were 
Climbing the New York City's
Peaceful blue sky.
Two magnificent monuments 
To able human minds.

On the wings of terror,
Propelled by hatred and revenge
Praying to their God of killers,
They came out

Like a Thief In the Night -Thinking of September 11th

Another morning I got up and my thoughts returned here. Just wanted to put something of
the memory that lingers still today from scenes we saw of September 11th.  Scenes we would
like to but will never and should never forget.  I do not wish to cause further despair to
anyone but if anything bring some

Remember September 11th Civil Rights

Remember September 11th
Signed legislation, equal access, public schools and mobilized troops.
Supreme Court Justice Warren, controversial some would say, provided  a goal of unity, 
the removal of stigmas, fair competition, birth of global recognition and a future for the 
spirited ambitious, the motivated  and the entrepreneurship.

Terrorism, tragedy, illnesses, women and men of good deeds,

September 11th

Today’s the day
When it all went down.
The pain and sorrow,
And the worlds big frown.
It shouldn’t have happened,
All those innocent people,
Who had to be there,
Now have God as their keeper.
It wasn’t their time to go.
I feel horrible for their families.
I just want to ask you,
 To pray for them please.
The terrorists that did this
Will get what

September 11th

It was a day of tragedy 
That will never be forgotten 
The sight of falling tears 
Explosions ringing in every ear
Seeing that first tower fall
Crumbling to ashes
And becoming nothing but dust
Everyone runs
Pushing, shoving, trampling
Trying to escape the horrific sight of what just happened 
Everyone is in awe
And when it seemed like it couldn't get worse

September 11th

After suffering the wrath of a sneak attack 
America now mourns to her very core. 
Though soon her enemies shall all but flee 
From the sound of America waging full war.

Let there be no doubt, no doubt at all, 
That the devil has decided to give us a call.
We shall defeat hell’s soldiers and cast
