[@alectownsend4601]

I TRULY BELIEVE THIS WAS A SIGN FROM GOD TO GIVE ALL OF US HOPE !!!

Tell that to all the dead and their families.

[@elbeardo]

Because God only likes the US 😂

- The Survivor Tree - From the worst day of all To my come back with glory I'm the survivor tree This is my story I was a strong pear tree At the World Trade Center I was strong every spring I was strong every winter One day in september When the buildings came down It was the worst day of all It was the worst day around We lost family and friends There was darkness and flashes I fell to the ground Surrounded by ashes Then the whole world felt sad And I really did too But we all came together Helped each other pull through And the workers they found me But I was in trouble As I had spent more than a month Burried in rubble My branches were torn And my trunk was all black And they worried that None of my leaves would grow back But one branch proclaimed I'm alive I'm alive My leaves said to the world I was gonna survived When they took me to heal I was treated with care And my branches grew Thirty feet in the air You can see in my trunk Where I go light from dark Where my limbs were reborn Where I grew brand new barks My blossoms remind us How strong we all are I'm a living reminder How we rose from the dark With the power of hope There's juste one way to summit There's nothing so bad That we can't overcome it by Gaye Sanders

Thank you for this gift. May all beings be blessed with sacred healing and sacred peace.

I remember going to The Memorial Marathon and seeing this very tree on a 4:00 morning. As we gathered around it and the man preached the winds were blowing hard, like the spirits of those that have fallen were with us for a moment.

[@jaiteal5087]

They where

[@nataliegeale2665]

A large group of our girls and their families from Australia are coming back to New York in January 2015. We can not wait to see the continuing growth of the memorial area, including The survivor Tree. This poem should be made into a book and placed in schools across your lovely country, not only to remember 9/11 and the hope that came from it, but to help all those struggling with life in general.

[@jaiteal5087]

Australia never forgets

[@HildegardSpringer]

This is so wonderful ❤

[@alectownsend4601]

WOW ! That's why they call that the Survivor Tree I have never known about this story at all at first cause one one ever told me but now I know

This is so awesum, this tree speaks for all those souls fallen in the 9/11 attacks. May they foreva rest in peace, and watch over their loved ones left behind.

[@agustinhernandez3171]

Milagros verdaderos, el árbol que sobrevivió a la caída de las Torres Gemelas, que vio como su hogar se volvía en 2 horas un montón de escombro y muerte, y vivió lo suficiente para volverse en el símbolo de la esperanza, la paz y la vida, de vuelta en un sitio ahora lleno de más arboles

[@Catsarah13]

Who wrote this? it is absolutely amazing!

[@tayoyozakura4532]

Very good

[@randomizedartman00]

Beautiful

[@trainmaster2505]

the tree also survived a GIGANTIC blizzard too

[@kawaibakaneko]

I can't believe he survived more than *one month* without any light, while badly injured! He was also uprooted in a storm while being nursed back to health, and he did not give a fuck, he shrugged it off like it was a simple breeze. This tree is more badass than the majority of us will ever be.

[@deltonwilliams2454]

Did you know on April 19th 1995 when a tree survived the oklahoma city bombing

[@julieezeigbo4423]

The 9/11 stories were very touchy and sad to comprehend. I never expected that incident will ever happened to us, I was in shock.

[@mirianquituizaca4156]

I love this pear tree

[@alwaisman8501]

I wish they would sell seeds from this tree like they do from the Oklahoma Bombing Survivor Tree.

Its weird how a tree always survives in Oklahoma city its big oak tree ,,,,,, I guess it shows how you cant kill the spirit of nature or humanity

[@seanodwyer8691]

[@seanodwyer8691]

“One day in September when the buildings came down...” Dang that part got me 😭

[@literallyshaking8019]

Ironic that Whoopi Goldberg is narrating this poem about “resilience and unity” when less than 10 years later she’s one of the biggest mouthpieces sowing anger and division.

[@tizz6028]

prout 😂😂😂😹

That is one strong tree

[@barasihombing1629]

wow the tree survived the heavy smoke and rocks when the twin towers are going down idk where the survivor tree real location when before September 9/11 2001

[@randycarver3816]

Wonderful

[@Nightzero66]

Ah yes… trees can move and talk.

[@laurarauhut5729]

Who wrote the poem?

[@Suko3]

Gaye Sanders

[@steveandsharonmaus6327]

I don't know, everyone is ascribing it to Gaye Sanders, but her poem is about the tree in Oklahoma City. There seems to only be a credit ascribed to "the 9/11 memorial". I'd also like to know who the author actually is.
