Yesterday I was contemplating what to do to honor 9/11.  I thought about drawing something; but then realized I'm not the greatest drawer in the world.  But then, thanks to my English class today, I had a way!   My teacher basically told us to write some literature about 9/11, whether it be a story, a poem, etc.  And, well, this happened:

 

The Silence

- 9/11/13

 

The cold, blue sky,

Above the city of a million lights.

Peaceful,

Calm,

Alive.

The silence of dawn,

Broken only by the sun.

Glass towers,

Glittering in the dawn.

 

The ashen, grey sky,

Above the city of horrified eyes.

Chaotic,

Fearful,

Dead.

The silence of day,

Broken by the screams.

Glass towers,

Shattered to all.
