A Cry Of A Nation (Written 9/11/2001
A rumble is heard, In a matter of moments, A mass of destruction, A nation mourns. A cowardly act, Of faceless attackers, Killing the innocents, A war is born. One moment frozen, As buildings tumble, Fire and smoke, Fill the sky. Deadly carnage, Mindless violence, So many dead, We can't count the lives. It's time for brothers, To come together, Sisters to protect, The children. A cry is heard, For retaliation, The call for men, To come to arms. In righteous anger, We have forgotten, Violence begets violence, It is forsworn. Bow your heads, Talk to the Father, Ask his protection, From the coming storm.
