Heroes Born Of Tragedy Poem by RoseAnn V. Shawiak

Songs of remembrance flow from within creative and
talented people, situations that touch us deeply,
penetrating our interior minds with their sadness.

Silent beauty of heroes being exposed from tragedies
of this life, fantastic and terrific how an ordinary
man or woman can overcome the odds.

Forgetting themselves, coming to the aid of others
who need help desperately, such wonder and courage
can never be captured totally.

Just a particle of their essence can be shown in a
picture, song or poem, never fully doing justice to
the one who has taken another's life in their hands.

Much like what was done on 9/11 in New York City,
a beautiful tribute to the goodness of all humanity,
especially in Americans.

A tribute also to everyone who lived through 9/11,
may they be forever blessed throughout the history
of mankind.
