On September 11, 2001,
many people were having lots of fun.
But when the Al-Qaida men did something bad,
they made all Americans extremely mad.

The eagle cried,
and many people died.
They hit the buildings with such power,
the sadness was caused because the
terrorists had just knocked down
the twin towers!

Everyone stared,
looking extremely scared.
Why would they do such a thing,
to the country with the tall lady
that stands so proud, and the
cracked bell that still rings so loud?

This incident will surely go down in history,
for it almost cause World War III.
I hope it never happens again,
for we have lost so many women and men.

GOD BLESS THE USA!
