In March 2009, I visited a friend’s home in Palestine. Â Her young daughter, Nadine, wrote the below poems.
our country
you look see feel
but no
u do look
u do see
but u do not feel
stop
pause
and look around
u see up and down
every were no one wants u
just go away.
this is our country place and life
stop talking it away
when its not rifuallly yours.
you kill us
beat us
we fight back for our lifes
but wait
u fight to take this place
just go away.
it happend to u disscrimanasion
but u dont think of it at all
and do the same to us discrimanasion.
you kill us
beat us
but u never feel if we had the same wepinz
we would be wining.
this is not a fair fight
u have food supplize and family
we barly have any just go away.
dont u see what u have done
yove killed children for no reasen.
you through at us
we through at u
but wich one is stronger
yours
just go away.
its our country place and lifes
stop steeling it away
your smiling and happy for what yove done
ITS OUR COUNTRY GO AWAY!
The window
when u look threw the window what do u see
the wind there and the rain for me .
but look closley and see can u find the great wisdom and happyness for u .
look threw the right window that is for u
pick it with goodness and right
look threw the window that is bright.
there is the side of sadness and hate and the side to smile and be happy,
pick the right window when u you look closley you will no the path foe you .
look threw the window that is right for you.
commmunicating peace
peace is the choice u pick in life
how u commmunicate peace
a lovely wonder and wisdom

and hold each others hands
and rome in harmony
and love to eachother

enter the wonder and wisdom and have a peaceful life.
