9/11 - we remember - we stand united
What happened that September Day?
We all struggle to understand.
With grief and anguish in our hearts,
Our country must take a stand.
Soon the Stars and Stripes appear
On every home and car,
A symbol of strength and hope,
As we prepare in war.
As the flags grow scare,
We search far and wide,
The need for "Old Glory"
To reflect our pride ...
... Times goes on, months have passed,
The families of September 11th
Seek normalcy, if any.
But wait ... what's this ... the Stars and Stripes,
That once flew far and wide,
Many ripped and torn and faded,
Have we forgotten our pride?
I wonder what the families think,
Old Glory now worn and tattered,
As they pass those familiar homes and cars,
The flag, once all that mattered
It makes me think about our nation,
When I see our flag so frayed.
How soon we all forget the pain
Of that tragic September day.
So let's think about those special heroes,
Who lost their lives that day,
And honor them with fitting flags
And for the families ... Pray!
