Forever In Our Hearts
Forever In Our Heart
The
day was one we’ll never forget,
for
we were an unsuspecting target.
It
was a cool September morning like any other,
yet
many children would soon have no mother;
So
many were left with a deep, empty void inside,
most
just wanted to run and hide.
A
little girl never dreamed as she said goodbye
that
it would be the last time she’d see her dad alive.
If
that angry teenage boy had known what lie ahead
he
wouldn’t have yelled at his mom,but held her tightly instead.
A
young college graduate eagerly began his new career
and
only minutes later was consumed with rage and fear.
I
watched with horror as smoke filled the sky;
all
I could do was prayerfully ask “why?”.
As
I watched the panic my face felt a tear,
and
I began to thank God for all those I hold dear.
Debris
flew all around as dust clouds followed;
what
will New York look like tomorrow?
I
saw footage of the planes as they crashed into the towers,
then
as officers and fire fighters worked tirelessly for hours.
Some
brave rescuers made the ultimate sacrifice
as
they unselfishly paid the final price.
I
kept seeing the horrid images in my mind;
I
couldn’t seem to leave them behind.
Yet
I knew that because of God’s amazing grace,
many
had moved on to a far better place.
It’s
been over a year now since that dreadful day
when
the bright, blue sky suddenly turned to gray.
But
to those who, from this earth, were forced to depart
you
won’t be forgotten; you’re forever in our hearts.
LONG MAY SHE WAVE!
