I wrote this on the 1st aniversary of 9-11.

 

 

Terrorist attacked our land,
One year ago today .
They tried to tear our country down.
But we are here to stay.
~
They crumbled down the twin towers.
They thought that we would fall.
Thou we grieve for those lost.
The US is still standing tall.
~
They took the lives of many.
For those innocents we still mourn.
Thou this tore heavy on our hearts,
A new strength in our country was born.
~
We Are The U.S. A.
We are the Red, White and Blue.
We will stand together for our freedom.
Now the terrorist are in a stew.
~
One Nation Under God,
United we will stand.
Highly we will wave our flag.
Together bringing justice to our land.

~Collette~
