[hometext] => Today is the anniversary of my Aunt's brother's birth. He was a member of the NYFD that like so many others on that horrible day in September 2001 lost his life. I took a moment to write and dedicate a few verses to him and all those souls lost that day.
[bodytext] => A savior, a true hero? If asked you'd say not. You earned recognition Something you never sought. So many heroes lost On the dreadful, mournful day. It is my wish that we never forget We pray and give thanks everyday. It is not the politicians That claim to keep us "safe". But rather those in uniform Keeping alive our freedom and faith. Today an anniversary of your birth A true hero to the very end. As those towers came crashing down Into God's loving arms we did send.
