Waves are now azure and calm
like nothing happened
Hudson- runs into the salty bay
no more- empty picture frames on the sedewalks;
Momories are scattered
West Side Highway-- now restless
the wind blew the ashes into the seaNo time for bitterness when the moonlight
glimmers on the waters;
The reflection of the towers no longer stands
tall and strong; To- pretend to hold a smile is not easy
but run out of words it it, for- those who perished
hidden behind the wall of silence--
mother, father, brother, sister, son...
Youth got lost in time frozen with fear,
but God please forgive me
if I touched this subject; The- flames sank low
on the sacred candle... And who wants to talk of
a mortal- flight into- disintegration...
The day when sirens howled; Stares have
now become distant, gravestones invisible
In memory of September 11.2001.
