Thank you for sharing this patriotic remembrance. Th lyrics are excellent. I really like that you capture the feeling of unity we had at that time, and the visualization of the American flag.

No wonder it was asked for again. It is so beautiful. Im afraid they have a lot on their hands if they try to destory Amercia again. I think they better leave them alone they are brave,no backing up.

Thanks for this. I remember how the country came to work together as one after these events. I don't feel that way now. Not always. I wouldn't go through another day like that for any type of unity though. Wish we could just work together. Anyway, our differences make us strong. Thanks again and I love the song Strong Enough to Bend! thonnigford09

Your poem has pleasant rhyme and even meter. The rhyming couplets collected into 6 per stanza works well. The message to encourage us of our strength and unity, encouraging.

Brett, in this poem, you manage to catch the shock, pain and anger of that terrible moment, but also the courage, the determination and the irrepressible spirit of the United States to counter and stand up against that attack against its people and values.
Great thanks for honoring the ones lost and all those engaged in the defense of your country and its allies.
All the best, Olof

I like to see the fighting spirit, that is the only way to defeat the menace of the terrorists. Being united no matter what country it is, will be the force to succeed. Excellent rhyming and message-it is like a call to arms. Good luck in the contest. Faye

This is a beautiful piece of poetic art dear Brett and an important social commentary! It's tragic what happened that day. It's happening all around the world.
Thank you for sharing!

'Strong Enough To Bend", is an extremely well-written and soul-stirring piece. America, like an Eagle, will long fly in the sky. It was a pleasure to both read and review a work of this standard.

Just like any good family. They may quarrel among themselves, but if you look for trouble with one you get it from all. This is very well done. Good luck.
Take care.
