9/11
Terrorists struck without warning!
Coming out of a clear blue sky
On a beautiful cool morning,
Leaving us to wonder why
They’d kill women and children,
Muslim, Buddhist and Jew,
Hindu, Shinto and Christian,
To name only a few...
One brother against another,
We aren’t so different at birth
Teaching makes us hate each other
And lessens our own self worth...
Hatred begets hatred,
Your victory is to make more like you
But in the end you’re dead
And “Victory” is dust and ashes, too
Yes, terrorists struck without seeing,
Killing all in their blindness,
But the most meaningful responses
Were random acts of kindness...

A sad and frightening day it was. We will never be quite the
same again. You put it very well.

A very meaningful poem, especially today at the sixth anniversary of the terrorists' attack on WTC in NY, That was a petrifying day, evben for me, a person who lives in Poland.That was a great injustice not because of the attact itself but because of innocent people who died in it.There wil l be no kindness, nor love before we don't learn to understand and accept each other the way we really are.
