As we look back to remember the attacks that happened on this day eight years ago, I wanted to remember the heroes of that day. I wrote a poem in 2002 about always remembering, but I have no idea where it is right now or if I even still have it. I wrote one earlier today as another tribute to that day. I would like to share that with you now.
Our Heroes
Then and Forever
A day to look
back
On another year.
Remembering
Our heroes
All who were
lost on
that Septmeber
day.
Looking back
to remember
the feelings
of sadness.
Feelings of
not understanding
and confusion.
Another year
of
remembering
our brave
HEROES.
Our heroes
are the brave
men and women
who gave
their lives
for us on
that September
day.
All of them.
In New York City.
All of them.
In Washington, D.C.
All of them.
In a Pennsylvania field.
Our heroes.
THEN AND FOREVER!
As you may know, my favorite movie is Wizard of Oz. The picture above was posted on the front page of a yahoo group I am a member of. It is called Everything Oz. This was put on there a couple of years ago. I thought it was an amazing picture that I had to print it so I could have it. I am going to frame it someday and put it on the wall with my Oz collection.
Thanks to all the brave men and women for all they have done. It mean so much to me to know that you have fought for our freedom. If it weren’t for you we wouldn’t have some of the things that we take for granted sometimes.
We will never forget!
