The planes came,
And took away our innocence.
The towers tumbled down,
As children's blocks to the ground.
And God wept.

People came,
All colors, races and religions.
To help, to save, to mourn, to give.
They came together as one.
And God hoped.

A few survivors,
So many lost and so much pain.
Our lives changed forever.
Down, but not defeated.
And God watched.

A nation reborn,
New strength, goodness and courage.
We will go on, we have learned.
United we stand.
And God smiles.
