We Can Still Feel the Love

WE CAN STILL FEEL THE LOVE

Did it not feel good

When we were united

Flags flew like they should

People were excited

Fire engines led the parades

Down Main Street on holidays

Uniforms with golden braids

Adorned flag carrying vets, bands played

Patriotic songs, hands saluted or covered the heart

Nothing could tear our citizens apart

Tragedies brought tears

Terrorism drove our fears

But after the most devastating act of all

As America watched the towers fall

We were compelled to grasp for hope

And in the love for one another this country learned to cope

Too many were lost

Too steep was the cost

When hijacked planes swooped down from above

But it also proved we can still feel the love
