9-11

[phantom]

A beautiful day in September
Would soon make us remember
How to become a nation undivided
And how to become a nation united
Phones rang, tears were shed
On this day inside my head
We watched the news on the screen
Only to view terrible things
The day we know as nine-eleven
Sent so many souls up to heaven
And so we dialed 9-11
To save someone that we loved
And now years later we are mourning
For the souls taken that morning
We dialed 9-11 for sometime
We dialed for those who died
So here’s to the heroes alive
Or in the grave
Here’s to the heroes still walking today
And we take those numbers now
To tell the stories of those who were around
To save the lives of young and old
These heroes were so bold
We dialed 9-11 to say
Save us from this dreadful day

OOh, I liked it. It was a bold message. I'm so happy that somebody actually used that topic to make a poem. Good job! *claps*

i like it, and i know such dreadful topics can be hard to capture in a poem but i think you did it brilliantly... except the 'we dialed 9-11' bits... i think it would be stronger without that, but that's just my opinion.
