There was not a cloud in the sky. A beautiful day in any
month of the year; for September, it was glorious. The sky began to darken at
8:46 AM when the first plane turned One
World Trade
Center
At 9:03 AM the second jet slams into Two World Trade Center
The sky became a blur of smoke and papers. Correspondence
and daily tasks never to be completed, streamed down like snow.
9:59 AM saw the first tower collapse. Less than one half
hour later, the second would fall. The debris created a new atmosphere…dark and
toxic.
It would be months before the smoke would disappear. It has
been eleven years and for so many, the sky has never turned back to blue.
