[hometext] => Living in England, this is my view, a sort of tribute, to what became a huge tragedy nine years ago today.
[bodytext] => I was living across the water When I saw a heap of bricks and mortar I stood and watched the TV At scenes that will live with me At first I thought it was an accident I didn't think any harm was meant Then I realised as the coverage grew This was the biggest tragedy I knew Seeing the fear from the people on the ground Rescue workers were running around Round the clock they worked and tried To keep as many survivors alive What of the families that lost loved ones? The children that won't see their dads or mums? They cry the tears and show their pain Their lives won't be the same Once the dust had settled, revenge was the word An action that I thought was absurd We didn't need another world war But then again we didn't want more The ones who lived can tell their tale About this devastating, destructive trail And when they look at themselves in the mirror They know they survived this terror And we won't forget 9/11 When those people died and went to heaven Some never got to say 'Goodbye' When the twin towers came crashing down It felt as if the world had drowned And I still can't work out why? But we won't forget 9/11 [comments] => 2 [counter] => 168 [topic] => 51 [informant] => chrisdavid [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 14 [ratings] => 4 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => Event )

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
