As she

stood there

, strong and tall.

I wond

er what she

thought

She couldn’t

turn away,

She was forced

to watch it all.

Did she long to offer comfort, as her country

bled?

She could not shield her eyes

She could not hide her face

With her arm forever frozen, high above her

head.

Keeping Freedom’s Place.

She just stared across the water

The smell of smoke and terror

Somehow reduced her

size

So small within the harbor but

we still recognized…

How dignified and

beautiful

On a day so many died

I wonder

what she

thought

And I know she must have cried.
