The Date is September 11thA Poem by TraceA poem to remember that fateful day.The date was September 11th A day no different than another The sun blazed bright on a morning clear The sky had never been bluer No one knew of the horror we would see No one expected a thing Nobody thought that today was the day We would see what an evil would bring But what we believe has been challenged What we knew of our freedoms and rights Would be put to the test, as the planes flew in On this day with a few fateful flights For those who saw them coming For those who were in the air For those on the ground or in the towers The whole thing just didn’t seem fair Yet; nothing in war is fair we know Nothing about it makes sense But when innocent people die for no reason Our people come to their defense For this is the United States of America And we will fight for the freedoms we love Because everyone still remembers that day We were attacked from the clear skies above Now it’s been twenty years since that day Still “We the people” stand strong For we believe God watches over this Country We will make right where we’ve been wronged So to all those who passed on that fateful day To all those who suffered and died To every soul who remembers still To all of us that cried To all our hero’s that fight the foe To the families who lost a loved one We take a moment and reflect on this day Yet the battle has only begun For until we can say without question That our flag has no reason to fear We will fight for our rights and freedoms To keep the Country we love free from terror. © 2021 TraceReviews
