9/11/2001
Those martyred in the
towers,
fourteen years this day,
were sacrificed by
terrorists
as message they’d convey
They hoped their act of
violence
would prove their power
to
dictate to our nation
and threaten me and you.
We found that they
awakened us
to that which we hold
dear...
our pride in facing
crises
with fervor and not
fear.
And every anniversary
of this so tragic day
pledge to vow we will
not let
our fervor e’er decay.
