September 11, 2001, Lest We Forget

                               Remember those once lost,
                                 And they will never be.
                               For no matter what the cost,
                                 They live inside you and me.

                               So long as we take the time,
                                 And remember the ones we miss.
                               As we listen to the clock chime,
                                 Blow them each a single kiss.               


From A Remembrance for All, a poem by Laura A. Neff (2001)
