America's Journey To Peace Poem by esther brush

America's Journey To Peace
9/11/01 A Day of Many Heroe's

Terrorist intruders dropped one morning
from the sky.

U.S. Citizens became warrior combatants,
fighting back hurling them howling to their deaths.

Americas peace challenged
we could not, would not! be pushed over the edge.

We awakened united in anger
transformed into purpose
to perpetuate throughout the whole world
American's hurt, wounded, thousands dead,
would not be our end, but our begining.

Our flag still waves for freedom
from the homes of all America in a united
quest to hold dear all those who were lost.

As we journey forward in our daily lives
let their deaths be not in vain,
Let America's Freedom forever Reign!
