A poem Huda Bayaawrote, dedicated to the children of Gaza:

''Just Beyond the Rubble

Close your eyes and dream away
Of a calm, beautiful place
Where the white, fluffy clouds that fill the sky
Are not those of bombs and planes intent on destruction
A place lit by the brightness of a buoyant sun
Not the explosions of blind missiles and enraged men
Remember, child, the feeling of laughter
That uncontrollable urge to expel bountiful joy
From your burning lungs


I prayed that from this sorrow I would be spared
Despite the endless darkness that burdens our lives
You were my silver lining
I never had the chance to say goodbye
To grip your hands, look in your eyes
And remind you a thousand times that I lived for you
I tried to shield you from the reality we lived
Assuring you that things would be alright
Even when I, myself, did not believe it
I hope you believed my words of reassurance
I hope you were spared from gripping fear
As you took your last breath
Before your young life was stripped away


Im sorry I couldnt protect you
It was bigger than me
My forsaken tears flow for your beautiful smile
My heart is filled with guilt and sorrow
That I am still here and you are forever gone
Ill carry your memory with me always


The raging fire that burns through the depths of my chest
Will fuel me to live on
A living protest and resistance
Against the forces that took your life
I refuse for your death to be in vain
So sleep and dream, my little angel
There is nothing to be scared of anymore
Watch over us and remember
Soon well be together once again
In fields of grass and budding roses
Ill meet you there with open arms'' * +

WARSubmitted by repenter86 on Tue, 20/01/2009 - 19:50 PalestineThose eyes, that sneer, that pose.Leaning back, counting rows.Chewing gum and burping beer.Never shedding a true felt tear.Those guns, those big black boots.No nationality, no proud roots.Empty souls with empty goals,Full up pockets with stitched up holes. * +

Insufferable faces, corrupted plans,Illegal settlements on Arab lands.The sky detests the prospect and smell,The sea, it only knows too well.The dust, it settles only to ascend yet again.Never knowing just where and when.The broken rocks and bricks of homes,Rise up to fly, these soldiered stones. * +

Those eyes, those tears, those fears.Crying vociferously but know one hears.Pulling hair and choking on sorrow,Whos next to go, today or tomorrow?That life, streets stained with innocent blood.No water to drink and foods no good.Crippled hopes, and stolen smiles.Broken bodies, in broken piles. * +

Faces lost beneath the destruction, the painMouths wide open waiting for mercy to pour its rain.The sky, it sighs, it hears the cries.The sea sees the desperation in their eyes.The dust, a temporary grave for those,Who were martyred, those who Allah chose,For He knows all, and He is fair.He warned of this and will ease despair.He is the witness, He is the one.To tear down the killers, to raise up the sun. * +
