9/11/05

  1. Four years have passed
  2. Yet the memories are crystal clear
  3. Fire, smoke, dust and fear
  4. Are forever in the air
  5.  
  6. And one small thing
  7. Intangible though it may be
  8. It ruled the day
  9. Not the fear
  10.  
  11. A country caught in the new millenium
  12. Each running day to day
  13. Depending on none
  14. Became millions united as one
  15.  
  16. Efforts to destroy our grand Nation
  17. Turned anger and sorrow
  18. To pride and fame
  19.  
  20. Pride in our country
  21. Fame among our own
  22. Everyday folk
  23. Defending all we dearly hold
  24.  
  25. Forever enfolded
  26. within the pages of history
  27. Our Patriotism shall forever
  28. Show we are still free
  29.  
  30. To those filled with hate toward US
  31. Please first remember this:
  32. We chose not to fall divided
  33. But instead to rise United.
  34.  
  35.                  K.A.T.H.    9/9/05

 

           A common field one day, A field of honor the next.

                                            A quote from The Flight That Fought Back

 

 

 

The Day of Dread

  1.  
  2. Today I read
  3. Another testimony of the Day of Dread
  4. While not involving those I loved
  5. It happened in my backyard
  6.  
  7. Too many thoughts
  8. Too many dreams
  9. None of them shared
  10. As they will never be
  11.  
  12. Hoping against hope
  13. That my dreams will be there
  14. Allowing those not whole
  15. A loved one's voice to hear
  16.  
  17. Now, Three years past
  18. Minute by minute the rememberance I wear
  19. Reminding me of those
  20. Who forever disappeared
  21.  
  22. While belief in angels above
  23. Allow solace to some
  24. Neither rhyme nor reason
  25. Explain events yet to overcome
  26.  
  27. But together United
  28. Not as a nation
  29. Not as a religion
  30. Only as a family
  31.  
  32. Shall we find the means
  33. The hope
  34. The faith
  35. To continue in life
  36.  
  37. A life meant to be shared
  38. A life meant to be enjoyed
  39. A life allowing those lost
  40. To forever endure
