NOT OUR CREED
By Neal Flaxman
On this fateful day a year ago
Some they tried destruction sow.
Their lives they gave to freedom hinder
As we watched our buildings cinder.
But liberty is not easily checked
Nor independence so lightly wrecked.
Though together we cried in pain
As our brothers we watched slain,
A phoenix now they watch rise
They tremble from its piercing eyes.
Anger though is not our creed,
Mercy rather in song and deed.
Together now let's speak of love,
And fly our banner, oh peaceful dove.
