Remember
(The 9/11 Poem)
Sunny September,
The 11th day.
All going their normal way.
People about
Car horns blowing
Keyboards clicking
Life…going
As life goes on,
A shadow passes by.
The flames erupt
As we say “goodbye”.
Tears are falling
Cries are heard
As the dust covers the last of the herd.
The Towers are gone
The rubble in its place.
The light smeared out
As hope seems to fade.
Sirens and shouts day by day.
Tears are shed
For those who are lost.
Remember the Towers that stood overhead.
(In memory of September 11, 2001. Inspired by UFCA’s 2006-2007 Advanced Drama team’s short reenactment.)

Remember
(The 9/11 Song)
Sunny September,
The 11th day.
All going their normal way.
People about
Car horns blowing
Keyboards clicking
Life going
As life continues,
A shadow passes by.
The flames erupt
On the southward sky
As we all say “goodbye”.
People jumping
Tears are falling.
Cries are heard
As dust covers.
Now we all look
Where the Towers once stood.
The ruble is all that’s left.
The light smeared out
As hope seems to fade.
Sirens and shouts day by day.
Tears are shed
For those who are lost.
The flag is raised and waving
As we remember the Towers that stood over head.
Remember the heroes…
That tried their best.
(In memory of September 11, 2001.)
