All this talk of terror and war. Let's not forget what this country was founded upon and let's all reflect upon September 11th and why we still fight for freedom. Afterall this is only my opinion and thank God I live in a country where I have a voice.

We're looking for our heroes
John Wayne ? Tarzan?
Gone...
Perhaps Schwarkof or Disney
All the same and heroes to some
Clinton's out but George Washington
Well Washington is gone
Bill C. can't be a hero
His ethics are all wrong
Then Abe our Mister Lincoln
He's gone with sands of time
Where are the modern heroes
Stand up and rise to shine
They are to be remembered
In case you just forgot
Minute Men of September
When terror took a shot
The heroes of the Towers
The ones that stood defiant
When faced with mortal terror
They became our modern giants
Minutemen of 9-11
Though nameless are a few
Heroes of September
"God and his new crew"
History gave us heroes
Terror gave us tears
But out of ashes rose the flag
New heroes calmed our fears
Minutemen of September
Your epic valor waves
Freedom has new meaning
For America and her BRAVE!!!
Thank You. You said it well for so many of us. Your well crafted poem is outstanding; one you should post several times annually. I salute you...Patriot, and American to the core. - Bill
Very well said and a true tribute to those who sacirficed unselfishly in the days follow 9 11. You are a loyalist of the finest kind and your words like the flag stands proudly in the wind.

Can't believe I got in to comment on your wonderful poem. Hero's are sparse in this land of the free, home of the brave. Oh, we have some, there are just none in Washington, except on a minor scale, the republicans in the House of Representatives who, hopefully, will kill that immigration bill the Senate sent them.
There is no light that shines any brighter than this Tribute! Truly it should be published on the front page of every paper in America.
Thank You for sharing it here!
Bravo Susan! You bet we have heroes, and God Bless America! It is still the best, because our military is the best, and makes sure we have a country to fight for!Not some coward terrorists that hide behind children and women to do their bombing for them! God bless all of our military wherever they are and their families!It is because of them we have the freedom to say what we please!!!
Thank you Susan!

Heroes should never be forgotten, and I hope they never will.
