I have posted before on 9/11.
I will post next year, and the year after, and the year after.
I will never forget
We will never forget
Everyone gave something on that day ten years ago
A piece of our collective humanity was lost
Our innocence in perceived safety was taken from us
As to what evil choices men will make
And while we all gave something on that bright, blue Tuesday morning
Some gave all they had that day ten years ago
Some gave all they were that September 11th
Some never came home
Some families and friends are still waiting
They were mothers, fathers, sisters and brothers
They were sons, daughters, husbands and wives
Family to grow old with
Friends to share a smile with
They were you and I, no different
And as we go through our days this anniversary
Let us remember that they were doing the same on that morning
Simply living their lives
Let us take time, a moment, a thought, an act, a prayer
To honor them
To remember the fallen
The nearly 3,000 men, women & children
Who never came home on that beautiful, sunny day
Ten years ago
