The tower stood tall on that September day
Busy with people who worked for their pay
Children nearby playing jump rope and such
The loser of the game, not liking it much
From out of the sky, so blue and calm
Flew the planes to the towers, just like a bomb
Not many survived that day of disaster
Many went on to the great hereafter.

- Title: 9/11 Tribute
- Artist: Shanra the Dragon Bard
- Description: I still remember that day as if it were only yesterday. We were living in Baltimore, Maryland. Halfway between NYC and Wash DC. There were people I worked with who had friends and family working in the towers and some of the children my daughter went to school with had parents who worked at the Pentagon. This is my tribute to the ones who died that horrible day.

Wow.
It's very simple.
But very respectful.
And its good to post things like that, because people shouldnt forget a day like that.
The day it happened, I was clear across the united states in safe Oregon, but now, I have familey and friends in that war because of that day.
Anyways, its very touching, good job. - Report As Spam
