From England with love
 
It was my day off, and I was just sat at home,chilling
I'd cleaned up the house, and finished some drilling.
Pictures to hang that symbolized life,
The pictures I saw next cut through like a knife.
Mid afternoon, around two thirty-three
My youngest son grinning, was sat on my knee.
I glimpsed at the TV and strained to hear,
My stomach sank quickly with horror and fear.
The sadness that unfolded was tragic to watch,
And with child on my knee I grabbed for a 'Scotch'
Disaster, then Disaster appeared in my gaze
Then the shock set in,..then a 'Mania' phase.
Could this be happening or was it a dream
This was truly happening... or so it did seem.
SIX years on.... this day is here once again
And the sadness i felt then is here and will remain.
To those souls who died on this terrible day
my thoughts are with you, i would just like to say.

Hi,
You are kind. And thoughtful.

It was weird to type out 9.11 at work yesterday in memos.
Also today I had to write a check and said that date a loud.

Also, today was a Tuesday -- just like that horrible day six yrs ago. This anniversary felt weirder to me than others did. I think that it was the Tuesday thing.

We are in NY City on vacation and I must say that 9-11 was still gut wrenching after all these years. We went to a memorial ceremony in a church near the grounds of the "hit"... a class of young school children, walking down Church St. singing.."I believe in Music." ~sigh

The security here is incredible...impossible to forget this anniversary, not that we ever could but being here, and seeing the "hole" and hearing the names of those lost...it's just so terribly sad.

Thank you David for the love from England.
