343

On what was a day of shock and disbelief
Angels came to those in need and distress.
Not ones from heaven or from myth.
These angels are everyday and above normal people.

343 angels to be exact
helped on that tragic and devastating day.
In the end they would give up thier wings so others could live.
Even years after the event
whispers still speak their names and what they did.
The men that were known for fighting the devil in flames
now would be known for their courage and drive to save their fellow man.

People never understood till 911
what the fireservice goes through for them.
On that day everyone would know first hand and up close and personal.
Fires would no longer be the only thing
that firefighters would and now fight for.
And they are a reminder to us all
that angels roam the earth to protect us.
