Unable to tunnel, today
Emotion running surprisingly high
Ding Dong Bin Laden is dead
Thoughts of 9/11
Cloud my mind
My Dad had died in the weeks before—
Not in the tower
Of natural causes—suddenly
At the ripe age of 87 in Mom's loving arms
Soon after we'd all gathered, together, to lay Dad to rest
Mom flew to be embraced where family numbers were greatest
Longing to be with her
Our family planned to fly out on 9/12
Man plans but God did not laugh
NO ONE laughed or flew on 9/12/2001
Fear of bullies terrorized the skies.
Fear of bullies terrorized our minds
And planes soar once more—
Through blue skies—filled with minds at peace
So—who amongst us shall work to inject children round the world
With inner strengths and communication skills?
How shall we promote peaceful solidarity throughout the world
How shall we link home after home around the globe?
As Effective Communications is ours for the taking ...
Answers to questions which cause tears, today
May arise from within minds, seeking peace, tomorrow
Thank goodness, tomorrow is only a day away
Emotion running surprisingly high
Ding Dong Bin Laden is dead
Yet so much work lies ahead
Thoughts of 9/11
Cloud my mind

Man plans but God did not laugh
NO ONE laughed or flew on 9/12/2001
Fear of bullies terrorized the skies.
Fear of bullies terrorized our minds
Bullies must be outed from compounds, caves—and minds
Before fear of flying recedes ...And planes soar once more—
Through blue skies—filled with minds at peace
So—who amongst us shall work to inject children round the world
With inner strengths and communication skills?
How shall we promote peaceful solidarity throughout the world
How shall we link home after home around the globe?
