Two Tall Buildings

They often kept my attention.
I stared at them from my classroom.
They often kept me wondering.
What were they for and who was there?
They often secured my visit.
When I realized what they stood for.
They inspired wonder and amazement.
Even as I shared the experience.
They caused my children to wonder.
They saw them for the first time.
They often are in my mind.
I can no longer view them.
They often will be in my mind.
The two tall buildings I grew to admire.
They are forever, gone, gone.
No more to view but always to share.
They are forever in my heart and mind.
