SEPTEMBER ELEVENTH " These Five Years Passed ~ Ground Zero Revisited..." Soot and flames that seared God's face and singed the angels' tears; Evil's hate-spawned, murderous waste impales hearts weeping here. Paled, the spirits left alive and still in earth's safe keep, Tossed free and destined to survive the pull of hell's entreat. Even now, the tortured shrieks echo pyred scene, Marred, the passing five years each ~ struck with grief, the dream. Bear us up, our Lord on High, as babes swathed in the crib, Evil's mark take from our eyes and to us solace give. Restore the cut and bleeding souls in which these evils stir ~ with healing peace make each heart whole, bathed in love's liqueur. Enjoin our hearts to beat as one; our will renewed and hale, Let us through Your Holy Son resist diseased assail. Even as our hope rebuilds the places hate has lived, Vanquished not, the love that gilds this battered isogriv; Evermore, our minds attuned to God's enlightened plane, Nevermore to nourish bloom of maliced acts and pain... Together gathered, five years passed, resolved through each dark night, Hearkening as His Son asks to God's will, held on High.
