Uvalde Poem by Sherif Monem




Uvalde a small town in Texas

Distance away from San Antonio

not well known about by many

In a fateful day Uvalde, Uvalde

Hits the news, media and nation

Tragedy struck real hard

The sitting was an elementary school

A devil intruder with machine guns

Seeking blood, murder and gore

In class room he started shootings

Victims of young age of ten lost lives

Two innocent teachers joined the list

The town mourned the victims

Prayers and vigil were conducted

A sad day for Uvalde, Texas and America

Beautiful Arabic/Middle Eastern (Perisan, Turkish) Poetry Collection – with English Translation Posted on   April 13, 2015 by   Mohammed Jehan Khan I am a great admirer of Arabic and Persian poems and the outstanding imagery in this poetry collection is enhanced by their (Poets’) poetic choice of heavenly metaphors blended with the rhythm flowing from their hearts. In other words I love it. When you’re flabbergasted by the sheer magnificence of a poem, this is what you’ll probably leave. Poets such as Kaleel Gebran, Nizar Qabbani, Rumi Imam Ash’Shafie (RAH) are unambiguous, clear, and usually concise. So Enjoy! 1. My Love – By : Kaleel Gebran حينما أغرق في عينيك عيني When I sink my eye into your eyes ألمح الفجر العميقا I catch a glimpse of a deep dawn وأرى الأمس العتيقا And I see ancient yesterday وأرى ما لست أدري And I see what I do not know وأحس الكون يجري And I feel the universe flowing بين عينيك وعيني Between my eye and yours 2. Keys – By Fatma Kandil

Poem Summer's End Judith Viorst

Summer's End One by one the petals drop There's nothing that can make them stop. You cannot beg a rose to stay. Why does it have to be that way? The butterflies I used to chase Have gone off to some other place. I don't know where. I only know I wish they didn't have to go. And all the shiny afternoons So full of birds and big balloons And ice cream melting in the sun Are done. I do not want them done
