9-11 Tribute

This is a tribute
To those who lost their lives
They were mother, father
sons, daughters, husbands, and wives

The towers fell
10 years ago
For the pain that day left
We shall always know

September 11, 2001
The world stopped turning
For an instant in time
That terrifying morning

The families watched
For survivors and prayed
Their loved one may have been
One of the few to be saved

Too many lives lost
When the towers fell
Leaving Americans everywhere
To hurt like hell

There still was some good
That would come out of that tragic day
Our Whitehouse was saved
Because a plane full of heros gave their lives away

America bonded
Over this tragic loss
We became united
Though it came with a very high cost

Fire fighters, police,
Citizens and soldiers too
Banded together to try to save
At least a few

Lives were lost
American grew united again
So this September 11
Make sure to remember those heros along with your friends

  1. Nice tribute T - Terrible, needless loss of life - sadly it continues and we've learned nothing.
