September 11th
Me

Posted on 04/23/2003 5:56:24 PM PDT by Michael121

It seems that some people have already forgotten Sept 11th.

There are those who would say

That it was only a day

And that we should just move along

Peace is just what we need

And to the UN they concede

And that War, for any reason is wrong

But they forget what it cost

And our loved ones were lost

It was not we who started this fight

But there are some that care

And a burden they’ll bear

To be part of America’s might

We must all say a prayer

For our men over there

Though there will be some that will die

Those we lost in September

We will always remember

For these now, once again we will cry

A stone now joins, the brothers gone long

A battalion of warriors, Taps now their song

I haven't forgotten, nor will I ever.

God bless our troops (and the rest of us too!) :)

I can say that this is the first music CD I ever bought or even bothered with, listening to it right now. My wife even commented on it to her mother.

I want to thank Michael121 for the picture and sentiments.

Also, the song 'Have You Forgotten' definitely affects me emotionally, and makes me wonder about ones that actually do seem to have forgotten.

I know I won't.

Thanks for the bumpin' :)

I'm so new here I don't know what it means, but thanks (I actually would like to know about bumps etc., so I can do so when appropriate, but hadn't seen the explanation before).

:)

When you respond to a person's post, you are bumping the thread back up to the top. You'll see BTTT sometimes (Back To The Top). Bump sometimes. Heck, sometimes you'll see just a period. It doesn't matter, it's just a term and a way to keep the thread active.

A ping is when you alert someone to a thread you're on. Again, you'll see the word "ping"....or ANYTHING.....just writing in someone's name in the "To" part of your post, pings them. When you're here for awhile and find things that interest you, daily, or posters whose posts interest you, you can ask them to put you on a ping list.

Clear as dark mud? :-)

WELCOME HOME!

'I have the vid but it is 41 megs long.......'

I have plenty of space, how do I get it (if it's other than the link I posted)?
