CERULEAN BLUE SKY, NOT A CLOUD IN SIGHT.

PEOPLE ON THE STREETS, HEADING TO WORK BY THE SCORE;

NO ONE KNOWING A TWISTED TERRORIST HAD JUST DECLARED WAR.

WITHIN AN INSTANT, THEIR BRIGHT SHINY DAY;

WAS FILLED WITH FIRE, AND BILLOWING CLOUDS OF GREY.

THE MAJESTIC TWIN TOWERS, EACH STRUCK BY A PLANE;

INNOCENTS ON BOARD, EACH GIVING THEIR LIFE IN VAIN.

FAMILIES LEFT EMPTY, THEIR FEAR THEY CANNOT HIDE;

WAITING FOR WORD OF LOVED ONES, STILL TRAPPED INSIDE.

EVERY DAY NOW PASSES, SEEMINGLY WITHOUT END;

EACH SAD PERSON, IN SORROW, FINDS A FREIND.

THE HEARTS OF AMERICANS ARE STILL FILLED WITH DREAD;

YET HOPING FOR A MIRACLE SCATTERED AMONG THE DEAD.

WITH SORROW IN OUR SOULS, WE'LL TRY AND UNDERSTAND WHY;

OUR MIGHTY NATION WAS STRUCK BY TERROR...OUT OF A CLEAR, BLUE SKY.
