    NINETY DAYS SINCE ATTACK

    Ninety days have passed us by,
    Since the World Trade Center,
    Was attacked from the sky.

    Most of the wreckage,
    has been removed from the site.
    the survivors and loved ones,
    sleeping a little better at night.

    Loved ones are still,
    filled full of grief.
    Hoping that closure,
    will bring some relief.

    Fighting the Taliban, day and night,
    The United States Armed Forces,
    are now on site.

    Though Osama Bin Laden,
    has not yet been found.
    The Al Quaida and Taliban,
    continue to lose ground.

    Afghanistan's a country,
    seeking new government and rule.
    Their women back to work,
    and their children back in school.

    May the Lord above bless,
    those on both sides.
    The survivors, their loved ones,
    whom we revere with pride.

    i cant believe such a great read on some true stuff, got such a low rating. personally, i voted a 9

    The true philosopher and the true poet are one, and a beauty, which is truth, and a truth, which is beauty, is the aim of both.

    Ralph Waldo Emerson, American Poet (1803-1882)
