Your world in ruin, also your home,
helplessly suffering bitter misfortune,
bleeding Gaza must be where you roam
imagine your wailing unheard importune.

I did enjoy reading your article, I’m listening, I’m watching and someday, I do not know when for sure, we will make a difference, we will bathe no longer our children with blood, but someday soon I hope with Eden’s love.

So sad how many innocent people are dying
Tragic it is.
This is a stunning poem. I feel this one and send a prayer up and over to Gaza, hoping it will be heard…
If only words and prayers could have their way for once. I thank you for your sympathy nonetheless.
I know what you mean… words are seldom enough to create full healing, but I do not think healing words and good thoughts are without their power in the Grand Scheme of things.
Perhaps there is darkness we all must pass through before we appreciate the light so much as to never want to live without it?
Well put, and I agree.
Very poignant poem. When will the misery end? Thanks for liking my blog.
A question I have no answer to.

Greetings everyone and welcome to another segment of Friday Night Poetry Corner #42. Yes, yes this is the second week in a row that I am a day late and a dollar short..
Well a quick note; Me along with a couple of my friends went to the Baltimore Comic Con this year. Extremely enjoyable—No I did not dress up. One day, yeah one day.
Now back to the Corner. Tonight I am featuring a socially thought-provoking work by Osama Iftikhar called “Akaasi 13: Cries of Gaza.” This poem in its greatness had a raw emotion to it that regardless of your philosopher leanings; it will affect your human side or at least cause you to ponder on certain things. Visit his page when you get a chance as well. Thank you for supporting and keep writing, thinking, believing in you because who else will do so in a passionate manner.
