She wrote the following poem after the tragic events of September 11, 2001. What Happened That Day By Mariah Spriggle What happened that day was a very bad thing. Because some unknown hijack ers took over our planes. They crashed into buildings; they were committed to die. Not caring about others; we all ask why? So many have died, so few were saved. So many not found as the na tion prayed. It’s still not over, we are now at war. To fight terrorism, and even the score. CONCORD MORTGAGE, INC. 3312 Narthside Dr. • Bldq.
