"I Hold in My Hands"

I Hold In My Hands...




Love…

Love for the ones that are saddened
Love for the ones that cried
Love for the ones that lost someone
Love for the ones that died




Prayers…

I pray for the ones that are innocent
I pray for the ones that are not
I pray that we will recover
I pray for the ones that fought




Hope…

I hope for the ones that are homeless
I hope for the ones that are sad
I hope for the ones that are childless
I hope for the ones that lost
their mom and dad.









Pride…

Pride because we will stand strong
Pride because we are a team
Pride because we will not give up
Pride because we will
take it to the extreme!




Forgiveness…

I forgive those who are guilty
I forgive those who are ashamed
I forgive those who are sorry
I forgive those who are to blame




I hold in my hands Love, Prayers,
Hope, Pride, and Forgiveness.




After the September 11, 2001 attack
Some Questions still remain in my head.

God Bless America...
Will God Bless America?




We will just have to wait and see.
