Cathi Rhodes posted the following poem in the comments box at the end of FLIGHT 93 CRASH SITE MEMORIAL posted on www.carolyncholland.wordpress.com . I took the liberty of posting it in the Beanery Online Literary Magazine. Carolyn
You have to understand that at the time, I lived in the peaceful country in Stahlstown, not far from Shanksville. I quite often admired the open sky and used my telescope frequently. On this particular night, I was so moved that I HAD to write, as a catharsis, to help me deal with this tragedy. This is my poem.
9/11
Cathi Rhodes
The sky is quiet…and eerie…and still.
Only the stars give their light
For the innocent and uncounted souls
That ascended to Heaven before night.
A world in shock of a nation’s attack
Finds it so hard to believe
That evil (more…)
9/11
