Dear Kathy:

This poem is very powerful; I too, even though I am Canadian, was very affected by what happened on that horrific day. Artists all over the world will always be haunted in memories, words, hearts, and in actions. I totally understand. God bless you for letting out your sadness, frustration, in an honest, poetic, and sincere way.

this has the power that day calls for. well done. you've said it for all of us. and you've relayed it from a very difficult perspective, a teacher of the most innocent, watching the results of the actions of the most evil.

five years ago i was watching in shock as the tragedy was unfurling before our eyes on tv over here and no one was sure if the first plane that hit was an accident... it was difficult for me to believe it was... as the second plane hit, the magnitude of horror that washed over me is undescribable... to this day, i would never have words to describe the feelings that were coursing through me... while all of this destruction was going on and as the towers fell, my youngest son was born... a day of terror, fear, and unspeakable pain throughout a nation and the world... and a new life starting in the midst of this violent rampage of hate and madness... my thoughts and feelings were at each extremeties, just tumbling and bumping into one another... what kind of world was it to be bringing a child into it, was one of the thoughts running in my mind... so many things were just going in my mind, it was a total circus within me... this day is not one anyone will ever forget no matter where they were when all of this was happening...

today, we are celebrating my baby's 5th year of life, but there's always on my mind the day that the world was seized in a hellish nightmare of all nightmares... all of those feelings of that day will always be there with me, as it's sure they will be for the rest of the world as well... *hugs* xx

Kathy, this is so beautiful. I can relate to every line so well. Let's hope that this doesn't ever happen again. It was a senseless, cowardly act that I will never understand.

*hugs*
