	Story Behind the Song It all started many years ago with my grandmother Mary Cote wrote a poem during World War II. Through the years it was stored away as a memory of those very sad times. It was written from her heart and soul and quite cherished. We all were together one day after our September 11th tragedy;and we all were discussing how we all were feeling at that time. My grandmother had been quiet but suddenly spoke out. She told us of the poem she had created all those years ago and how the war had made her feel. That nite my mother Laura Smith was so moved by our conversation that it inspired her, so with my grandmothers permission she then added her thoughts, since she too had remembered and had lived through that war. In her mind though she thought she really needed to share a message to all her children and her grandchildren. Teach them how difficult those times had been and encouraging them through her words to take a step back and to learn from the past. So she very lovingly put the words together and created this beautiful song. I was then called into this loving project and read what had been written. I was so moved by the words that creating a melody for it was very easy and instantly in my heart.
