Where Is God?
by Maddie Black

This is a poem written by my 13 year old granddaughter in response to the terrorists attacks on September 11.

A plane hits - many will die 
Another hits - people begin to cry 
Where is God? 
A third plows into the pentagon 
Plane number four crashes - many more are gone 
Where is God? 
Rescuers rush in - the buildings fall 
Our country mourns - death has touched us all 
Where is God? 
Churches open - people come to pray 
People are found in the rubble - alive they stay 
Here is God! 
Chorus' of God Bless America ringing in the air 
Proving to one and all - terrorists we will not fear 
Here is God! 
Peace will come to those in pain 
For as sure as the sunshine after rain 
GOD IS HERE! 

May all those who were touched by September 11th, let you know, God is there.
