This is my most favorite poem by British author, John Donne. I wanted to share it in honor of the 10th anniversary of September 11.

| This was from my visit to Ground Zero in New York City in 2007 |
No man is an island,
Entire of itself.
Each is a piece of the continent,
A part of the main.
If a clod be washed away by the sea,
Europe is the less.
As well as if a promontory were.
As well as if a manor of thine own
Or of thine friend's were.
Each man's death diminishes me,
For I am involved in mankind.
Therefore, send not to know
For whom the bell tolls,
It tolls for thee.
