To late for words or actions!

I was in like kindergarten or 1st grade.
Our teachers got called down to the office
And they came back with scarred looks...but,
Still taught us everything that day!
Every once in a while another teacher would,
Come to our class and talk to our teacher.
We were to young to understand what happened.
So the TVs were off.
What I remember of it was a giant smoke cloud,
And people running and terrible screams.
Our teachers were so strong.

The nation was strong.
But, just because your strong doesn't mean,
Your a hero.
The true heroes were those men and women...
Those men and women who gave there lives,
For our country.
Yes! I'm taliking about,
Those fire fighters, EMS, and every other person,
And animal who helped save,
And find those people in those 2 buildings,
Those two burning buildings.

Last year they had a memorial close to my town,
With a million flags it seamed like some with names...
Some...without...those were for the ones lost,
With no name at all,
Even those people shouldn't be forgotten!

THOSE PEOPLE SHOULD NEVER BE FORGOTTEN!
THOSE 911 HEROES!
WEATHER DEAD OR ALIVE!
WEATHER FF OR EMS OR OTHER HELP...OR...INNOCENT!
