And Here We Gather ~ 2025 in Remembrance, 9/11
Two decades plus four years has gone by
Since horror besieged that September 11th sky
A morning, that yet echoes lament and loss real
Tears, heartache, shock, beyond all conceal
The heart, the mind, conceives the thought
We within in restlessness be wrought
For there is yet the question of why, who, how
To know, to resolve, held yet as a calling vow
Before our eyes, consuming fires, crumbling buildings appear
Loved one, sons and daughters, mothers and fathers held in fear
In dedication, in honor, with an all embracing love
Blessed BE the souls that dwell in the heavens above
As we hold memories in our heart, so too, be there a known vow
A vision once held, to be held anew. in this moment, this moment, NOW
What vision, what promise made,. hankered in their soul
Be our remembrance spirited, be we a beloved echo of a goal
And to all who have been lost to the aftermath of toxins and poisons real
Poisons that created devastation and loss beyond conceal
TRUTH... and the treasures of faith and grace
Our hearts in GOD's love, we, in supernal knowing, to place.
