for people touched by the events of 9/11.

at Manhattan stretching out below the towers;
they seemed indestructible.

ReplyDeleteCelia, this New Yorker thanks you for your very kind post. Yes, somethings will never be the same again, and yet, we do need to continue to try to find reasons to celebrate life. xo
ReplyDeleteI remember looking towards the Manhattan skyline as I sailed out of the harbour. NY looked like an old friend who had had his front teeth knocked out. Will never be the same.
