Many Years Ago Poem by Audrey Heller

Thinking about the tragedy, that
befelled us, many years ago, still
doesn't go away! It still brings
chills up and down my spine and
I'm afraid, it's always going to stay!
I'll never forget that moment, as I
watched on my television screen,
the most devastating pictures, I,
had ever seen! My first reaction,
was of complete horror. Was this
really true? Was this really
happening, in the land of the red,
white and blue? I will never, get
this picture out of my mind, to look
back at the chaos, that was now, left
behind. Even though, this all took
place, many years ago, it's always
going to stay. For I think something
as powerful as this, can never, ever,
go away!
