Grandest poem about that evil day and likewise on other fields where wars occurred and inhabitants died, on so many places, spots and spaces, like at the World Trade Center, scintillating poem 5 Stars full on Top, Sir.

You say in such a simple way that makes us want to cry at what you write...sigh.

Great poem - our sentiments agree on this tragedy. Two of my cousins worked in the WTC - luckily one was away from the office, the other one was there, but escaped with a hurt knee. So very lucky - both of them. You're welcome to read my poems on 9/11 if you'd like. Thank you for sharing your poem with us. RoseAnn.

Two smoking elegant towers Several leaping living bodies Shards of glass and concrete Wailing sirens, wailing men The devils painting is now complete (Good poem Sir - Like you I also dream of a world sans violence and a planet which is a brief picnic spot for us mortals to enjoy and leave in peace when the time comes.)

We should stop wars... A clear massage from every poet... From every site... and from you... A Honest Human... We are all humans... We should stop wars in every terrain Sound of wars are never... fun...!
