"9-11"


The 11th of September, the terrorists came out to play;
And the world has changed forever, since that horrific day.

We’ve had many terrorist attacks, throughout the years;
But the severity of this one, has caused the most tears.

A year ago today, at approximately 8:45;
Flight 11 hit the north tower, taking the whole city by surprise.

Every channel in T.V., is spreading the news;
And as the whole world watches, they become more confused.

Most of the people, didn’t know how to react;
Probably because they didn’t realize, that it was an attack.

At 9:03, most of those people had changed their minds;
Because the south tower was destroyed, by flight 175.

About an hour later, the 1st tower collapsed;
Now the whole world was tense, not a soul could relax.

A lot of people believe, that God doesn’t play;
They said this was his form, of judgment day.

Thousands were hurt, and a lot more died;
Thousands panicked, and a lot more cried.

It is now a year later, and we are gathered here together;
And as we raise the flag half-mast, we will take a minute to remember.

To remember the people, who died and went to heaven;
And to remember the tragic day, of “9-11”
