Remembering 9/11

Believe Me, Patriotism Is Still There

It was all about the horror
When the planes came crashing in
As people's hearts found compassion
Above the violent din

It was all about the patriots
As reality had set in
Aboard a doomed and hi-jacked plane
where their choice would do them in

It was all about the love
for others that had to win
On that fateful day called 9-1-1
When the planes came crashing in

It was all about the bravery
of women and of men
Who made sacrifices on that day
Of the terrorists' mighty sin

It was all about the comfort
Given families within
The circles of those lost that day
When the planes came crashing in

It was all about togetherness
when 9-1-2 was ushered in
And Americans showed their own true colors
and new hope was to begin

To find the aura of patriotism
You only need to look within
And find just what was in your heart
The day the planes came crashing in

I know we have it within ourselves to find our patriotism and loved for our country. We need not have to look so far back in history to find it. We lived to see what kind of people we were on that fateful day on September 11, when the planes came crashing in.
