9/11 Remember – Let’s Roll!

Everyone knows where they were
in witness of this day 20 years ago.
When we came together in horror as one.
When we came together in grief as one.
And now as divisive as we have become
should not this give us pause and consider
the ones lost,  and the brave responders
against an evil foisted on us,
those still hurting and fighting to recover.

Would those we remember today
want us to be divided if they were here?
Their voices scream out to be strong as we once were.
Do not grieve,  but unite for us and America.
Wrap us tight into the flag they loved,
and remind us there is more we need to do.
They’d exclaim “Let’s Roll!!!”

Thousands are dying today because we
are not united in war with a virus.
In remembrance, let’s unite and be as one for them,
for all of us, especially those fighting evil
of another threat that was foisted on us.
Let’s Roll should be our battle cry!
