Palestinians are accused of being a people who hate their children as much as they love death
No!
Hasbara lies
Palestinians do NOT love death
They just don’t fear death
Palestinians Love Life to adoration
So much so
They are willing to die for
Palestinians adore all children
Not only their own
Embroider for them dreams
With a rainbow thread of memories
of laughter and tears
Stitch by stitch, patiently they sew
All shades of agony, pain and joy
A future full wonder
No fear no sorrow no hunger
Just one big family
No one above, no one is under
Palestinians
A people who sing of freedom
Embrace its cost with grace
Be it as it may, imprisonment for life
A people who cherish humanity
With their broken bones and maimed limbs
Protect its divine destiny
Fend off cruelty, depravity and insanity
A people who fight oppression with relentless passion
Leaving you in awe of their sublime compassion
A people who face military superpowers
With unshakable faith, humanity they empower
Defeating carnage and death
With a will to be
With modest means, and sublime insight
They fight the righteous fight
Might, they teach us, is NOT greater than Right
Invading hearts of humanity
With the fierce beauty of a tearful smile
The oppressors fail to know
Every baby they kill
A thousand born
They wage on us wars of extermination
Exponentially we seed the ground, we grow
Palestine is not just a name
Palestine
No more, a mere geographical location
Palestine
No longer a closed chapter in a book of history,
as they intended it to be
Palestine
A poignant story,
A beautiful vision,
A passionate cause,
An exquisite poem,
A melody for freedom
An inspirational idea,
A moral concept
Could never be destroyed
Whether the baby-killers realise it or not, 7 October, 2023 marks the beginning of the end of a dark era of oppression
and the dawn of a new horizon,
for justice, freedom and peace
