Never Forget.

Michael A. Watkins 1965 (san diego)



Overseas-Mother nature has found enemies
But why, doesn't she know we're all God's children
can't you see,
War is fought behind the desk of the unfriendly
who'll never see the inside of the penitentiary,
When waters washed away tens of thousand
a whole nation cried,
While our soldiers die by the nameless bombs-
being placed by the roadside,
I pray to God that he finds a place for me in Heaven
because we will all never forget what happen on 9-11

By. Michael A Watkins.
