Palestine is her name

'Kill him too,'
i heard one say
before i become
their next prey
i woke up
in a noisy hall
people all around
like a busy mall
my left arm
and the shoulder
still bled and hurt
i, an eleven year old
weak, and not so bold
'Mother, O'Mother,'
i cried out aloud
none paid attention
though, it was a crowd
A doctor approached
and tried to fake a smile
asked my name
a mere skill to tame
'where is my father
did they kill him too?'
I wept and I asked ...
I will never forget
the unbearable pain
of how brutally
my sister got slain
The smile vanished
from doctor's face
what could he say
in such a bloody case
After a long, long...pause
he looked at me,
and holding my hand
caressed my hair,
his one eye was dry
but, the other had a tear
'O My newly Orphaned'
begun he so
'We live, and
we were born
in the biggest prison
of the world,
This was our own home
Palestine is her name
where, its ‘defamed occupier’,
brought itself to shame.'.

You have depicted a vivid picture and tale
of a real and a typical life story
of what goes on
and has been going on
for the past sixty years-
ever since the Zionists have
driven the Palestinians
out of their own homes and hearth
to occupy their land and suppress them..
They have been made to live as prisoners
in their own homeland; tragic indeed!
As always your imageries are very lifelike
and realistic ; your language easy-
it captivates the heart, the mind
and the soul..
Please keep writing.
In Peace..
