I lay my head to rest
and in doing so
lay at your feet
the faces I have seen
the voices I have heard
the words I have spoken
the hands I have shaken
the service I have given
the joys I have shared
the sorrows revealed
I lay them at your feet
and in doing so
lay my head to rest
As so many families face once more the memory of lives lost or shattered by the tragedy of September 11th, I remember also all those men, women and children of across all ages and nations, whose lives have been taken or broken by the violence of mankind.
