I found this a highly inspirational poem! It is patriotic as well. It is nice to see that something beautiful like this could come out of something as horrible as nine-eleven. I remember where I was the day that it happened. I was working with my mom on refinishing some kitchen cabinets. We didn't know anything was going on until we took a break for lunch and went to the local convenience store. Everyone was talking about it over their coffees and doughnuts. They didn't go into details they were all just it's horrible. How could something like this happen here? We asked what had happened and we were just striken.
