Wish me a rainbow...a 9/11 story lest we forget

Wish me a rainbow...a 9/11 story  lest we forget

As a little girl,
he sat next to me
at junior school.
I always liked him.
No much more than that.

Later at high school
we walked home together.
He would carry my books.
At graduation,
he was my date.
We even wentΒ 
to college together.

That was whenΒ 
we broke the chains
of friendship andΒ 
he became my lover.
My first and only love.

We married young
it was no surprise
to our parents.
They were expecting it.

Before I knew itΒ 
we had three kids.
Two girls and a boy.
Our son looks just like him.

September 10, 2001

It was just like any other day.
He came home from work
Cooked burgersΒ 
on the backyard barbeque.

We got the kids to bed
drank a glass of wine
went to bed at ten.
He wanted to make love
but I was exhausted
the kids had
been terror's all day.

September 11, 2001

The next dayΒ 
he kissed me goodbye.
With a see you later honey.
I got a call from my friend
She said quicklyΒ 
put on the TV.

I saw the towers fall
Turning to ashes
Like my life did
at that moment.

All I could think was
I wish I had made love
to him last night.

September 11, 2018

The children are all
grown up now.
He would be
so proud of them.

I look at my strongΒ 
handsome son.
He looks like him exactly.

We stand at ground zero
and say a prayer.
I whisperΒ 
it was always you honey
Only you.

As if by magicΒ 
he answered me
A giant beautiful rainbow.
Circled over New York City.
And I know it was for me.

My tears fall for all who suffered
by this senseless act of violence.
Peace and Blessings
Jude
