> A Powerful Poem
> >> >
> >> > It was late one Tuesday evening,
> >> > Before a mother could sit down,
> >> > To tell her only child about
> >> > The terror that hit downtown.
> >> >
> >> > She looked into the eyes of her son
> >> > God, she loved him so,
> >> > She felt her heart begin to break
> >> > And the hurt begin to show.
> >> >
> >> > She gathered all her strength and courage,
> >> > as her story she began to tell.
> >> > "Baby don't cry, but I'm afraid daddy
> >> > Might be under a building that fell."
> >> >
> >> > The boy looked back at his mother,
> >> > His eyes made not one blink.
> >> > And the mother's tears began to fall.
> >> > What would her baby think?
> >> >
> >> > You see, his dad is a firefighter,
> >> > And his hero from the day of his birth.
> >> > He loved his dad more than anything else
> >> > That could ever inherit this earth.
> >> >
> >> > The mother's head began to drop,
> >> > Her forehead resting on palm.
> >> > She thought her son would be upset.
> >> > Instead, he was very calm.
> >> >
> >> > The boy leaned over towards his mom,
> >> > And put his hand upon her head.
> >> > In her ear he began to whisper,
> >> > And this is what he said:
> >> >
> >> > "Mommy please don't cry,
> >> > I knew daddy wasn't coming home.
> >> > I talked to him just a while ago,
> >> > But it wasn't on the phone.
> >> >
> >> > He told me that he loved me,
> >> > And he promised we'd meet again.
> >> > He told of his new home,
> >> > And the job he was to begin."
> >> >
> >> > "God is building an army,
> >> > And there are many angels needed.
> >> > That, is where daddy and the others went.
> >> > They weren't all defeated."
> >> >
> >> > It was then, the mother lifted her head.
> >> > The tears streamed down her face.
> >> > And she could feel her husband's presence,
> >> > As it filled her heart with grace.
> >> >
> >> > It was then she knew her son was right.
> >> > He was in God's great army now.
> >> > She also knew her son was safe,
> >> > That he'd be kept from harm somehow.
> >> >
> >> > So, evildoers of the world beware.
> >> > An army is on the way.
> >> > Bolstered by new angels,
> >> > Who left the towers that day..
> >> >
> >> > Their commander has never been beaten.
> >> > His power has never been matched,
> >> > And if evil thinks He was almighty before......
> >> > Well, the surface has just been scratched!
> >> >
> >> > GOD BLESS AMERICA !!!!!
> >> >
