Innocence Lost

It was the end of an age
It was the end of an innocence
Of apple cheeked children
Playing in falls’ first leaves
Adults with the world as their playground
Making mountains of molehills
If only to occupy their halcyon days

In a babies heartbeat
Childhood comes to an end
In cataclysm a birth anew
Grieving for all those lost
With new lessons to learn
So painful into a new world

A tribute to the victims and heros of 9-11
