The stand was taken
Blue skies, shaken
Cavity, a sweet field
Human bullet, bravery shield

Once a spark, miles away
Now a prayer for which we pray
Forty roses, not one single grave
Thousands dead, calamity forgave

No guns to make fire
As one we rose higher
Forty heroes, this nation
One plane never hit destination

The author's comments:
I wrote this in memory of those who perished on Septemeber Eleventh 2001 (9/11). And in memory of the 40 heroes of United Flight 93, who in attempts of overthrowing the hijackers, were able to crash the plane into an open field, saving the lives of many, and sparing our nation much more than we can ever thank them for. Forever The Heroes of United Flight 93! WE WILL ALWAYS REMEMEBER
