" America Rise Tall "
Glass flew and papers were scattered
On 9-11, The heart of America was shattered
As thousands of American lives were lost
Why did our country pay such a deadly cost
Two planes flew into each World Trade Center
And in our hearts it left a depressed crator
Every single American will always remember
The attacks that collapsed the trade center
Rescue workers worked hour after hour
Searching for victims in the crumpled tower
Many began to pray for strength and power
Some even went out and planted a flower
Our freedom was challenged to fall
But our strong nation will rise tall
Our red, white and blue must stand forever
And with this, " Justice For All "

I love the line:
"Every single American will always remember
The attacks that collpased the trade center."
( I think maybe it might sound better if you add it to be "World Trade Center" here).
Good job. |
