9-11

A poem about September 11, 2001.

This was written for "9 - 11" Writing Contest, "Invalid Item" .

The sky was grey
that September day
back in 2001.

Smoke filled the air
and all were in prayer
that day in 2001.

Bodies did fall;
grown men did bawl
back in 2001.

Stronger we grew
because we went through
that day in 2001.

Different from
the day we were numb
back in 2001.

We faced that threat
but never forget
that day in 2001.


Thank you to all who served and who continue to serve our great nation.
