We stand, united
with all who have felt terror's
devastating touch -

Our hearts beat as one;
our tears mingle together;
you are not alone -

You are in my heart;
you are ever in my prayers;
you are family -

My brothers, sisters
let us make a stand for peace
and stand, united.

The format lends a structured informality to the work. Excellant choice.

This is a wonderful expression of love and support, Karla. England is our Motherland; when she is harmed, we are harmed. It is impossible not to feel pain for all who are affected by these barbaric acts. To all the Lily-Livered of the world who choose to believe that terrorism is a myth; may your souls rot in Hell for what you allow to go unchecked and for the support you offer them through your silence and cowardess.
Take care,
Sherry

Playing the 'my god is better than your god' game only leads to violence and distrust. Since when did god take sides? I'm sure she's appaled at the idiocy of humanity. No nation is 'clean' in this war of ideologies. Thanx for the thoughts, Karla. One day we get awarded the next olympics. Next day we get our asses blown off. Funny old world ... isn't it!!

You lead by example, Karla, with a gentle poem that's a cry for peace.

After 9/11 America was united as never before, ready and anxious to see this Al Qaida/Ossama bin Laden faction hunted down and stopped forever. Instead, we invaded a country that had nothing to do with 9/11 and 4 years later, we are shedding tears again... while those who truly do wish the west harm are free to roam wherever without fear of being caught. These people could have been a horrible memory... and London would not be weeping for her dead. katy xox

(I just watched again, on TV, Bush being asked about Ossama, to which he responded: 'oh, I don't really think about him much' My question? Who will be next?
