Angels Without Wings....An Ode to our Fallen

The Ranger

Angels Without Wings


Our Nation is in mourning,
They say she'll never heal.
Terror in the skies still vivid,
But this Country does not yield.

Soulful sounds of Bagpipes,
Flags half-mast across the land.
Sobs echo from a lonely wife,
And a child too young to understand.

In far away, hostile lands,
They dance at our Country's fall.
While these Angels without Wings,
Are now names engraved on walls.

America could not realize,
The terror they watched throughout the night.
And the Hero's who never questioned,
The evil they were willing to fight.

Just the very thought,
Brought a tear to the Nations eye.
At home, Mother's and loved ones,
Pulled together...Prayed and cried.

These Angels without Wings,
Among the rubble in eternal sleep.
This Nation shall never forget them,
And together we continue to weep.

From the Police Stations and Firehouses,
Across the killing skies of time.
In muddied boots they rushed to help,
Our friends...Yours and mine.

We shall hear their laughter no longer,
These brave souls have passed away.
And the world is somewhat poorer,
For a part of our Nation died today.

Yes, these are our Hero's,
Who lived their life with strife.
They served this Country and fellow man,
And yet sacraficed their life.

This Nation begins it's healing,
From the ruins of this horrible scene.
But, let us not forget these Hero's,
These Angels without Wings.

And now they stand before our God,
Down here the Church Bells ring.
I know our God is smiling,
For our Angels earned their Wings.

Ranger's Words:

What greater sacrafice can we make, to so unselfishly give the ultimate so that, though we may perish, others may live by our deeds alone.

To lay our very soul on the great American altar of freedom, without concern for ourselves, so that others may thrive under the very roof of freedom, and security that is given....

We all to often forget each day that those around us, when faced with the right to choose the ultimate sacrafice....though they may be weak of body, the very soul knows not the bounderies of strength....

How can we in some small way pay just homage to such great deeds??

My thoughts are this.....Simply put, NEVER FORGET!!!

The next time you walk into Wal-Mart with your GF on your arm, you may see a WW2 veteran in a wheelchair taking loose change and giving those silly red flowers we toss in the trash can once we're outa sight....Next time, shake his hand, thank him....and take that ugly red flower and put it on top of your protein can, each time you better your body, look at that flower and better your soul as well.....

I thought it was beautiful, so i sent it to my husband and he said it was perfect to read at the eulogy. I wish i didn't have to read it. we lost 6 close friends, all firefighters. Our friend lost 14 members of his company. its a sad day all around. Thank you again. I am to distraught to write one of my own.

Here's the latest one...makes ya think, and you better hug your kids today...they have and will suffer the most in this...


Dear God, I Miss My Daddy

My daddy is an Fireman,
And to the Job he's been true.
He didn't come home from work last night,
Mommy says he's in Heaven with you.

I'm worried about my daddy God,
He's never been away from home before,
Mommy cried when she told me,
That we wouldn't see daddy no more.

I don't know what it was,
That mommy was trying to explain.
She said the Firemen weren't bad men,
And their lives are not lost in vain.

Now I don't know what that means God,
All I know is we miss daddy a lot.
Because tomorrow is my birthday,
And I sure hope he hasn't forgot.

I've followed in my daddy's footsteps,
And I'll fight my own fires one day.
I hope I make him proud God,
Everynight, for this I pray.

I miss those rough and callused hands,
That held me gentle so.
Are you sure you didn't make a mistake,
Did my daddy have to go?

Dear God if my daddy is up there in heaven,
Please tell him as soon as his he's free.
To hurry back home as fast as he can,
Because we miss him, mommy and me.

May God Bless, Amen
