Never to forget ( 9/11 ) by carlspenc1 at All poetry

it was but a moment in time
a day just like any other,
people simply smiling saying
good day to one another.

just another day at work
the radio playing songs,
then them cruel words`
the twin towers have gone.

I feel your pain
here in England,
they feel it all
around the globe.

let`s share a few moments silence

for those poor souls
who never came back home.

they will never be forgotten.

Good piece...
Very nicely done, it was a terrible day indeed. Inshalla, all the terrorists will be caught or slaughtered.

We Americans are grateful for all of England's support. Thank you!

Very well written and a moving tribute to the people lost in the horrific attacks, although attacking Iraq was bad retaliation I still feel those responsible for the attacks are cowardly bastards. Well done for writing such a good tribute, I've been considering my own tribute which will be up soon
Again Well Done and Good Work (pusher)
