A Life Once Lived

A BRIGHT SUNNY MORNING FILLED WITH MUCH FEAR
THE ASHY DUST BUT HAVE ALL DISAPPEARED

A LIFE WAS LOST, A LOVED ONE KNOWN
A PERSON, A FRIEND, ONE OF OUR OWN

BRAVE MEN, WOMEN AND CHILDREN WHO GAVE THEIR LIVES
SO OTHERS COULD LIVE AND OTHERS SURVIVE

GONE IN THE DUST AND SHADOW OF LIGHT
WE WILL NEVER FORGET THEIR FAITHFUL PLIGHT

YEARS GONE BY FOREVER SO CLEAR
MEMORIES OF LOVED ONES WE FOREVER HOLD NEAR

MAY THE ANGELS SURROUND THEM WITH LOVE FROM ABOVE
FOREVER REMEMBERED, FOREVER SO LOVED

September 11, 2011 – This poem will remain unedited and unproofed. It is my first poem. I share it here today with the rest of the tributes and memorials on this tenth anniversary date of September 11, 2001, with much honor and respect to all those who lost their lives. It is also for those who remain on the fighting field fighting this war called Terrorism, in our country, and throughout the world.

No one has the authority to use this poetic write by any other means without first consulting the author.
