Sitting under that big old tree
Reminiscing about younger days
Thinking back on how we were
How the time has slipped away

Remembering the past
How we held it oh so close
Laughter, love and memories
Was what we cherished most

Sunlight shines upon us now
With a warm and tender glow
Calling us to journey forth
We have so far to go

Yes! Change of plan, change of pace
We’ll relish the time ahead
We shall never forget who we were
But remember who we are, instead

We Will Never Forget

There are no words
That can be said
To ease this imminent
Feeling of dread

That still looms over
Our hearts and souls
Of hateful men
With hateful goals

Each year we remember
Those who gave all
Brave men and women
Lost in the fall

Of buildings so high
Standing proud on our soil
Aflame with the fire
Of jet fuel and oil

A country united
Together we stood
Through dark clouds of smoke
We did what we could

As we look back on this day
Filled with sorrow, regret
We are Strong, We are Americans
We will Never Forget
