September
11, 2011
The Big Apple awoke, a new day had begun.
The Statue of Liberty was standing so proud,
as God and Freedom were singing out
loud.
Native New
Yorkers were starting to enter,
The Twin Towers called The World Trade Center.
They went to their office and they worked with pride,
on this day when a part of America
died.
The people
of Boston were also at work,
responsibilities they never would shirk.
The traffic was brutal as it is every morn,
but each day they brave it for the show must go
on.
Now downtown
was open, Logan Airport was too,
as people boarded their flights they had no clue;
terrorists were sitting right there by their side,
on this day when a part of America
died.
Now at 8:46,
the whole world was in shock,
when there was an explosion that shook the whole block.
And downtown Manhattan was like a war zone,
for these terrorists attacked us right in our own
home.
As the
planes hit The Towers, there was a bad fire,
the people were screaming, as the flames grew higher.
But through the disaster, they still showed their pride,
on this day when a part of America
died.
The police
and firemen didn't think of themselves,
not one person said, "It's every man for
himself."
For to those trapped inside each man was a brother,
on their wounded shoulders, they carried each
other.
Although
September Eleventh brought death and dismay,
we all banded together in the U.S.A.
We showed our courage, our strength, and our pride,
On this day when a part of America
died.
