Freedom Reigns after 9/11



On the tenth anniversary of 9/11, I thought we'd take a moment to remember that day. I wrote two poems, one posted on http://www.cornfielddreams.blogspot.com and one on this blog. These poems I wrote shortly after 9/11 but still relevant to today.

Freedom Reigns

A book lay open on a bench.
It's pages turning with the breeze.
People walked pass, some cried.
Each person turning a page.
In my heart I cried a thousand tears.
I did not know a single soul in that book.
You see each page was a life.
On one day in time, they became heros.
In one day they became history.
People throughout the world cried for them.
They never knew that on that day,
Their lives would end.
Each page now a lesson to learn.
The price of freedom, we stand as one.
Whether American, British, or another nation.
United we now stand.
For the cry for freedom has been played.
And we will stand to see Freedom reign.
Not just on this land but everywhere.

Least we forget.

Wishing you lots of Tasty English Delights.

There's always room for one more.
