On this day, thousands of Americans died
When terrorists declared war on the United States of America.
They died when the terrorists flew 2 hijacked airliners,
With passengers on board, into the World Trade Center,
Followed by another hijacked airliner
Slamming into the Pentagon.
A fouth hijacked airliner
Never made it to it's destination,
Going down in Shanksville, Pa. instead.
There is speculation that the actions of the passengers
Prevented the plane from reaching it's destination.
More Americans died when the towers collapsed upon them
while they were trying to rescue those trapped in the Towers.
My thoughts and prayers are with all
Those who lost loved ones, friends, and neighbours.
