The Tragedy of Gaza 

In Gaza's tragedy, a tale unfolds, 
Of broken dreams and stories untold. 
Where children's laughter mingles with fear, 
And sorrow's shadow stays near. 
In destroyed streets, hearts ache and mourn, 
Yet from the ashes, resilience is born. 
In Gaza's situation, a request for peace, 
May hope's gentle whispers never cease.

  1. I thought your poem very well considered and powerful and emblematic of the waste and suffering occurring today in Gaza. I was so surprized to learn you were in grade nine; you are wise beyond your years, young Wazed.
