The morning sun

9/11

In shadows cast by towers tall,
A tragedy did befall,
On September's mournful morn,
A nation wept, a world was torn.

Beneath the sky of azure blue,
The skyline changed, forever new,
Twin spires, symbols soaring high,
Now crumbled, lost beneath the sky.

The morning sun, a witness grim,
To chaos, sorrow, terror's hymn,
Hijacked wings and hearts of hate,
Sealed the fate of victims' state.

The Towers stood in grandeur bright,
But fell to ashes, endless night,
A symphony of sirens wailed,
As heroes rushed, their courage hailed.

Pentagon, a fortress breached,
Innocence forever leached,
Smoke and fire, a nation wept,
For lives lost and secrets kept.

Flight of heroes, Flight 93,
A battle fought, a legacy,
In fields of green, they made their stand,
Defying darkness, united band.

The world watched in disbelief,
As grief embraced both pain and relief,
From ashes rose a spirit strong,
Resilience, unity, a nation's song.

In Ground Zero's solemn space,
A void left by the Towers' grace,
Reflecting pools of sorrow's tears,
Remembering the lost, the fears.

Memories etched in steel and stone,
The names of those who'll ne'er be known,
Yet in their absence, stories told,
Of love and bravery, ever bold.

Through shattered glass and twisted steel,
The spirit rises, hearts will heal,
For in the face of darkest strife,
Emerges hope, the gift of life.

September's scars forever etched,
A lesson learned, a world stretched,
In unity, we find our might,
To stand as one, in love, in light.
