EYES ON!

9/11 darts in again with wide EYES ON the effigies, the cemetrees, the tower keys and all the September breeze. So while you getting jitteree, EYES ON and calm the memories with a treat to set ... EYES ON throughout the day with ease. Speak it in Spanish, French or Portuguese, it's right here in English not to be hidden under your sleeves.  Read it and share it from morn to eve.  The task began, the poet speaks, EYES ON
(A Memorial Tribute to America)

BREAKING THE GRIEF
                 OF
A DARING SPRINT

EYES ON

A DARING SPRINT

The bold sprinters flew!
A horrific story exploded on the quaking of 9/11
shocking like electricity in every part of earth.
'twas that approaching early autumn break
They blew "Twin Towers" wild.
"Flash" spoke of the Manhattan site
Rubble is a transform.
"The Pentagon", another target, struggled in Washington.
In Sommerset, another sprinter braked
As he brushed the finishing tape
A defeat made record in the Penn State.

The destruction produced dust
Men, women and children were lost by the thousands
And the world stifled in grief.
I thought of "Terror" and his "Troupe"
How they giggled, perhaps in pleasant relief
To see a nation being deceived
with the agonized grown bereaved.
But, how will "Terror" lift himself from "Ground Zero" to conceive?
Is the rhetorical question in doubt or belief.
Yes, in the stench of the holocaust, appalling spirits rose in grief
For loss they won't retrieve.
Loud trumpets blew for relief
Brave Firefighters and Police officers
stood up, among others,
Heroes in celebrated features performed the task
And some are gone deceased.

A mark of the most ghastly air disaster
A recorded malignant plaster -
Thus explains - daring suicidal hijackers
Made annulled dead laughter.
EYES ON 2001 to remember
Debaters commented on the opinion of annihilation -
fate of the famous World Trade Center
creating a lasting impact on World Order.
But, how can "Terror" relate to a brutal slaughter?
Is the rhetorical question in doubt or belief.
Yes, at the center of the trauma,
Down in the core of the Wildwood Resort;
In New Jersey path,
Some trembled through the test
Of the aerophobic pest
When I empathized with you there
I felt my heart discharged its fear
As I rest my trust in God who'd steer
The airplane I'll take to Jamaican shore
In a little while for sure;
October to be specific more.
But, I wondered, how will "Terror" react to rebuke in the uproar?

EYES ON

BREAKING THE GRIEF

EYES ON a memorabilia
Of the tragedy passed through America
Still pondering the mind?
EYES ON no less a place in the aftermath
Believing God cares.
Thinking He cares for the nation to be renewed
In strength for progress
And continuous growth in fortress
Knowing He saw the moaning through this transition
And so, He sends you an international rendition
To cheer your haunting memories through the window
Of a revolutionary bliss!
But, how will "Terror" perceive this?

EYES ON America!
Your comradeship embraces and comforts many
Many whose eyes select you to stay alive on your line
To let your body shake the grief away
Let your spirit stay awake
Let your trumpets roar let your wings soar
Let your engines roll let your bells toll
Let your horns toot let your headlamps shine
To confound the presence
of your enemies in this reminiscence
To cripple fear, celebrate and create
Your usual joy and laughter
Appreciating God cares.
But, how will "Terror" tolerate the way you're been revered?

EYES ON America
When this dare-devil spiked your toes the other day
Discerning it happened to show you how to rise again
How to rise again with a new claim!

EYES ON

God
lit the torch in Glory for you to see the way
The way to the unfathomable fame of a land.
But, how will "Terror" interpret this in yonder land

EYES ON America land
So nobly robe in stately band
A band entwined with good, solid blessings
Accommodating millions into a promised land
They see growing in good hands.
With a delight to call on the Almighty One
Understanding, He will deliver you
From the flame, in burning,
They blazed to bring down in moaning
What Love had marked for fame.
Knowing you're not incapacitated
Your loved ones still booming in like rain
The "Love Bird" strongly supports this gain.
EYES ON encouragement
Continue to lift your name
And let your good spirits reign
While you draw the rein
Ring your tales
Through all your terrors' ears and break their tails.
Sing songs of Thanks and Praise;
Avoid the temptation to murder Herod and his mates.
Forgiving them of this horrible blow
They stroke on your gate,
You know King Jesus can heal any broken state
And convict the wicked for this act of hate.
Understanding, the battle claiming a spiritual victory
Gain the highest percentage rate.
"In God We Trust",
Is how your "Green Dollars" speak
So trust Him more each passing week
And strenghten up from growing weak.
A splendid joy He gives
Will merry you from the ploy of jealousy,
The thorn of envy.
You are the Rocking Victory of the time.
EYES ON His revelation!
He states his cares
But, how will "Terror" fare?
To swell your cheeks with cheers
You know God cares!
But, how will "Terror" shed his gruesome crocodile tears?
EYES ON America!
'twas a barbarous blow but, remember God cares!
EYES ON EYES ON EYES ON!

EYES ON

the paths of Americaaaaaaaa!
