One of our talented Family Members, Ms. Linda Newman wrote these two poems in the wake of yesterday's tragedy. Both express my feelings quite well, I think they probably express the feelings of many Americans. I have included her email addy (GramLin99@aol.com) at the bottom of these poems. I think she would appreciate hearing from you and how her poems awoke the pride inside.

AMERICA THE BEAUTIFUL

America the beautiful,
America the free,
America my homeland,
What have they done to thee?

The hate that festers 'round the world
We hoped to keep at bay,
Has finally broken down our walls
And come to roost this day.

The nameless, faceless cowards
That brought the City tumbling down,
Forgot that this great country,
Will always rally round.

Filled with smoke and flames this night,
The City wears a shroud,
Yet turn your eyes upon the bay
Where Liberty still stands proud!

America the beautiful,
America the free,
America my homeland,
The Land of Liberty!

(Copyright 9/11/01~Linda Newman)

 

AMERICA STILL STANDS PROUD

God's blessings on America
This night, while fires still rage
In New York and in Washington
Fueled by hate's jealous rage.

And woe to those, the perpetrator's
Of this heinous crime,
Who dared to author history
Of the most insidious kind.

They think their hate can bring us down,
But America, shout out loud:
WE HAVE OUR LOVE TO BUILD US UP!
America still stands proud!

Please write to Linda at GramLin99@aol.com and express your pleasure at reading her delightful poetry. I understand that you may feel the word 'delightful' is a misnomer at this time, but the upbeat tone of these poems helps to remind us once again what a wonderful country we live in. Write and tell her how wonderful and proud you are to be an American. At times like these it is a breath of fresh air to read poetry like this.
