911DA Story: Story
On September eleventh two thousand one,
Naturally my day had just begun.
Enjoying morning tea and watching the news,
Now what I saw next were just happening in twos.
A plane flew into one of the World Trade Towers,
To think I would continue to watch for hours.
I was terrified at what I saw,
One more plane crash, then towers fall.
Not for a minute could I move from my chair,
Uncertain what came next, all I could do was stair.
No one knew where a plane would crash next,
Dam those terrorists are so perplexed.
Experts say this was skillfully planned,
Religiously we must fight for our land.
God will give us the strength to stay strong,
One Nation Under God is where we belong,
Don't give up, we all must rebuild and get along.
