I don’t remember the planes hitting the Twin Towers.
I don’t remember Flight 93.
I don’t remember how my parents acted that day.
I don’t remember seeing them a month before they fell.
I don’t remember what I was doing when I heard the news.
I don’t know what the government could have done to prevent this.
I don’t know what the terrorists were thinking.
I don’t know much about what happened that day.
I don’t know when the soldiers will get out of Iraq.
I don’t know if it will happen again.
I do remember that a terrible tragedy happened that day.
I do remember those who risked and gave their lives for others.
I do remember the flags flying.
I do remember that there are soldiers still fighting because of that day.
I do remember that I started appreciating soldiers more.
I know that too many people died.
I know that they attacked because they hate America and its freedoms.
I know that I do and will always love America.
I know that because of brave men and women the terrorists didn’t stand a chance.
I know that we can never forget.

Great job Hunter!
I'm wearing my 9-11 flag pin today as the zipper pull on my jacket. Hunter, this is a beautiful tribute.

Beautiful job Hunter!
What the heck do you need to interview me for when you have this?
The people of America demand more Hunter!
Well done. Thank you Hunter.
I agree with Zach! A beautiful tribute, and you should be very proud of what you have written.
Great Job, Hunter. It's hard to believe how much time has gone by. How old were you? Six years old?
Wow, Hun ~ what a tribute to 9/11thank you! :)
What an amazing poem Hunter! Congratulations!
One of your mother's strengths... is fostering talent like yours.
Okay, just to clarify:
When I said that we demand more Hunter, I didn't mean that we demand less Amy Jo. Come back!
