PRAYER

Winter, be merciful,

Reduce your cold nature,

Homeless people in Gaza,

The bodies of the kids

Are shaking from your freezing.

Hunger does not spare the unfortunate.

Even the stars turned away from them.

Death is breathing.

Oh, Almighty God, help them,

Kindness disappears in the world,

It wasn’t You prepared this fate,

You are compassionate, great!
