911DA Story: Story

This is not a story, but a poem to commemorate what happened on 9/11:

9/11 is day we won't forget
In a moment our lives changed by a single jet
Three more planes went down too
We all stared in disbelief and didn't know what to do
Our world was in terror and shock
Luckily, we had our heroes working around the clock
Firefighters, nurses, doctors, police officers, and emts did their absolute best
Never before have they had to face a tougher test
They worked hard and never gave their lives a second guess
They just went in the towers and acted so selfless
Sadly we lost our fathers, brothers, mothers
Our friends, our families, and countless others
As we approach the anniversary of 9/11
Do not be sad, for they are all in heaven
Never forget the greatness and pride in the USA
and never forget those lives lost on this most somber day.
