In Five More Days

ForeverJesus7

In five more days,

it will be September eleventh.

It is a day that we,

have all come to nickname 9-11.

It will have been seventeen years,

since the tragic event,

that shook our nation.

(Sigh)

So like every year,

on it's anniversary, 

they will show 9-11 documentaries.

They will show patriotic movies,

and probably each governor,

from each state,

will give a speech,

and maybe say a prayer.

Overall, what really gets to me,

is that in a nation so divided,

it always takes a major tragedy,

to bring this nation together.

If we come together,

as a nation,

then there would not be,

so much tragedy.

I suppose I am only writing this,

because now seems,

like a relevant time.

Maybe it is because,

people are more vulnerable,

and will to listen,

on 9-11

  • Comment from author about the poem: Let us never forget that terrible morning on September 11, 2001 when those terrorists crashed those four airplanes; two into the World Trade Center, one into the Pentagon, and one in Pennsylvania. Still, we must always continue to move forward as people. That means we must grow as people. That means we must learn to love each other. Persistence is key
