Poeple have posted thread asking where were you on this day ... well when I turned on my TV .. I was in shock like many others I can imagine ... I was sitting on my sofa crying with pen to paper writing ... and this is the result ... not to mention a CD that helped beneift the Red Cross to help victims as many of my poems were turned into songs ..... *** WARNING TEAR JERKERS ***

"A Day To Remember ~ Sept 11 / 2001"

A time of unrest was seen today
Hatred has taken many lives away
No matter if God, Buddha
or the goddess was their faith
So many lives have forever been changed
Many hearts being in an outraged pace
Friends and family torn apart
Just because someone
had so much hate in their heart
Our hearts light candles
to guide those lost souls safe in hand
Even though this senseless act
is something no one
will ever really understand
My Soulful tears go out to everyone in need
Just because hatred made so many bleed
I pray that the Goddess will forever bless
everyone touched by this day of unrest

"20 Minutes Of Love To Last"

Jeremy Glick got on a plane destined for flight
Not knowing this would be his last fight
Men wanting to destroy the plane
were among those on board
From phone calls everyone was ordered to make
emotions poured
From one guy to the next
Jeremy came up with a plan not to complex
This man of bravery
so strong and true
asking his wife "what should I do"
His wife on the other end of the line
said " honey you need to go for it this time "
20 minutes on the phone with his wife
to give her enough love to last her whole life

"Saviors Of Flight 93"

A man called his wife on the phone today
He told her that men were trying to take the plane away
He told her that he loved her
and to never forget
but that he had to do something
or spend forever in regret
A young man called his mother from the air
He said he last goodbye and told her to take care
He explained with a heavy heart
that there was a plan to take back the plane
and he was to take part
As the line went dead
His Mother was left weeping on the other end
Their hearts guided them along
with a few other souls on board
Given strength to fight back
this evil while the plane still soared
His wife wept with tears as his daddy took the phone
but his son's voice was gone
He listened for sounds on the other end
but screams were all he could comprehend
His Mother though she cried
knew from herself deep inside
her son had to do what was right
even if it meant the end of his life
The inspiration to save lives
even though everyone knew the flight was lost
A few brave souls paid the ultimate cost
The song GOD BLESS AMERICA everyone sings
As Thomas Burnett Jr and Mark Bingham are given angel wings
I swear this world will never forget
what you did to serve and protect
With the utmost love in your heart and without regret

"God Has Come Calling"

God Has come Calling For those so very true
So many under the nation of red white and blue
Police, Firefighters, EMT's
trying to save lives
Men, Women and Children,
Husband's and Wives
Sisters, Bothers.
Daddys and Mothers
Loved ones and Strangers
all the same in the end
Hatred has taken away so many things
as we remember that terrible dark day
Far away the Peace Tower bell rings
while the dust fades away
God Has come Calling For those so very true
So many under the nation of red white and blue
Police, Firefighters, EMT's
trying to save lives
Men, Women and Children,
Husband's and Wives
Sisters, Bothers.
Daddys and Mothers
Loved ones and Strangers
all the same in the end
With our heartfelt thanks and undying love
those hero's we remember
are sent to the heavens above
We promise to never forget
the loss of that day
nor the memories we carry
will not fade away
God Has come Calling For those so very true
So many under the nation of red white and blue
Police, Firefighters, EMT's
trying to save lives
Men, Women and Children,
Husband's and Wives
Sisters, Bothers.
Daddys and Mothers
Loved ones and Strangers
all the same in the end

" Lets Roll "

Todd Beamer tried to call his wife from the air phone

but he could not get through.

All he heard was the operator's tone

He began to relay what was going on

In the hopes that something

might help when he was gone

The operator took down all she could get

and made a promise not to forget

Please tell my wife I love her and the boys

as he relinquished to the operator all his joys

Now please let her know he began to speak

to remember my love for her and the boys

when things get bleak

Tell her that I couldn't just sit still and not try

But I am willing he said to help fight back

and protect the innocent I am willing to die

I know things are so out of control

But I must do something to stop them

so " Let's Roll "

"Hope Is In The Harbor"

On the day that Terror rang loud and clear
Many went to lend a helping hand
with determination as well as fear
Every soul wondering......
Do I make a difference
So many lives shattered
In a moment, an instant
Standing tall and on guard
for everyone in sight
Her torch held high
a beacon sending out hope
through each day and every night
Hope my friends stands strong
in the harbor of our hearts
beating now to a new song
A song of peace and life
to honor those who have past on
whose memories stay within us
even though they are gone
Open your eyes and your hearts to see
Hope is in the Harbor
of New York City.

"One Nation Under The Divinity Of Love "

As I stand as a part of one nation under the divinity of love
I pray for healing to those in need
White, true and pure as a majestic dove
If Muslim, Seike or Arab was their faith
Only a select few carried out this mission of hate
As one nation brought together by terror
Please let us not continue
the hate from now until forever
Let us not dishonor the people who lost their lives
By carrying a dark torch of hate
to grow and thrive
So many lives have already be touched
by this senseless act of grief
brought into many home by the shadow less evil
called hatred the thief
Try to forgive but never forget the day
that so many from one nation under the divinity of love
lite candles for those souls to guide their way.

"Peace Tower Heart "

The Peace Tower cries out for you,
Our Brother in all your sadness
Within a crowd that came
to give love in a moment of madness
Standing strong, tall and true.
To forever remember the Red, White, and Blue.
Giving unity and love within hatreds defiance
Creating an unbreakable bond through the worlds alliance
As the Peace Tower chimes out
in honor of this day to remember
our hearts are forever touched
by the 11th day terror of September

"Eagle Eyes"

On the day that the sky turned black with hate
leaving so many souls feeling
scared, lost and irate
A world nation came together
in a great time of need
Gathering strength
to never concede
As I fly
in the skies above
My heart breaks
as I bare witness
to the outpouring of love
I the Bald Eagle
Bird of the greatest Nation of all
High above
I vow to never give up
I am determined never to fall
Feast your eye upon my breast
to give you hope
As those dearly departed
begin their eternal rest
For I am a symbol
standing for the land of the free
and the home of the brave
Within my heart
the stars and stripes flag
forever does wave
So many lost their lives
on that fateful day
May they rest in peace
friends, family and loved ones pray
On my wings
*I shall carry your prayers as you need
With faith in me our nation will succeed
We will over come
this world wide tragedy
with the knowledge that we are free
I shall carry all your woes with pride
All within my Eagle Eyes

"US Blessing"

May this strength we send give you the eyes to see when you are blinded by hate
May this strength we send give you the compassion to forgive your foes
May this strength we send give you the energy to strive to live another day
May this strength we send give you the courage to carry on in the face of adversity
May this strength we send give you the hope to share for a better tomorrow
But Most of all.....
May this strength we send give you all the love you need.
