A great idea, Maryann. Of course, the challenge is to find good poems. There are any number on 9/11 but many of them are embarrassing. I didn't know the one you posted, which strikes me as moving. An excellent one is Charles Martin's After 9/11.

Another great public poem (with its private dimension as well, of course) is Yeats' Easter, 1916.
