Remember How Quickly Our World Can Change! As I was driving my car into work Wednesday (09/12/01), I kept thinking about all of the people who went to work on Tuesday morning (09/11/01) not knowing what was about to happen. How many times have you hurried to work or school or the store, not ever thinking that you may not make it back home. I have never written anything like this, please sign my guest book at the bottom of this page and let me know what you think. "As I go to Work this Morning" My tribute to those needlessly lost on 09/11/01 |
As I go to work this morning
Will I make it back today?
To the world of which I am used to
To the land of which I am made!
Did I kiss my child this morning?
Did I look her in the eye?
Did I tell her that I Love Her?
Was that my last Good Bye?
Did I kiss my wife this morning?
Will she miss me much tonight?
If I do not make it back this way
If I die while on my flight!
Did I thank my God this morning?
For the beauty all around
Keep me safe here in this tower
Keep me safe down on the ground!
Did I thank my God this morning?
For the wonders of today?
For the freedoms I am granted
For my country did I pray?
There are always people out there
That are cruel and most unkind
And may keep me from returning
With destruction on their minds.
There is hatred here this morning
As those planes head for the earth
To destroy us in America
To destroy all we hold worth!
What they don’t realize this morning
What they will never understand
America the land of freedom
Was strengthened by their plan!
Just look in the eyes this morning
As they look up in dismay
Each holding up their neighbor
Each praying their own way!
God Bless America this morning
God Bless the victims where they lay
God Bless their friends and family
Strengthen America Today!
As I go to work this morning
Will I make it back today?
Thank God I'm in America
For America I pray!
