I still remember
It was the last of November
It was raining all day long
And the wind was strong
………………………………………….
……………………………………………………
…………………………………………
I was only nine years old…
You were two years younger than me
I opened my arms widely
Then we hugged each other
Were I your mother,
I would do the same and more!
………………………………………….
……………………………………………………
…………………………………………
We sneaked to the backyard
My parents stayed inside
The storm hit the whole city
But Israel hit our own home!
People rushed from everywhere
But I was full of despair!
………………………………………….
……………………………………………………
…………………………………………
We stayed alone
Without mom
Without dad
Without home!
………………………………………….
……………………………………………………
…………………………………………
Both of us
No one else
We were there inside a tent
I was shivering, and you too
The tent was about to fly
As the storm started to blow
………………………………………….
……………………………………………………
…………………………………………
You missed your teddy bear
I missed my warm blanket
Alas…
The torrent pulled them all
Were I able to change the calendar
I would delete that November
………………………………………….
……………………………………………………
…………………………………………
It was raining bombs and rockets
Oh my mom… Oh my dad
I would delete that day…
When you both passed away

Oh, I'm glad to know that you like it to this degree. I'm also pleased to know you and your active site where I can share my poems. Thank you..Blue/Blackmatta
What to say after reading such a moving piece of poetry? I am totally impressed.The way in which he depicts even the smallest details. OMG.I agree with Cyc . By far, it is his best composition.Truly,it is not easy to write about painful events in life. To describe those memories in such a natural way is a remarcable personal quality.
Dear Blue,May God bless your life and be compassionate upon you, always. May God guide you always!!!!!
Thank you very much, Rachel. I'm happy to know that my poem is good and you can feel its message. By the way, I'm not a "HE" ^_^

Thank you, and Happy Birthday, too
It's superb....great....awesome..... Fantastic........ I have no words. This is called expression.... Which only Blue can do...
Thank you, Sid. Not only Blue can do it, but any human who feels and can write. You would do the same if you were in my place. You're a talented writer, as well.
Really awesome..
Thank you for reading my poem, Evil_returns
Definitely, this poem is worth of a second reading. By the way, Sorry for the HE issue. I was replying to Cyc ´s comment and I was talking to you at the same time. As you can see, it is not a good idea to talk two people at the same time. Haha. Lol. Let´s leave aside my typing mistake. I have something else to mention.
Truly, you have depicted a thought-provoking content . Bravo!!!!!!!!! In my view, it is your best work, by far!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Hope to read your following piece of poetry soon . Regards. See you .
Pardon me, Rachel. It is OK. I only wanted to make it clear.
I appreciate your compliment and your nice words about my poem. I have lots of poems, but I don't have time to share them all here. I will think of the next poem to share, soon (inshaAllah).
The poem is very touching. I can imagine how pain and lonely it was. There are many people in the world who are in the same moment like that. I just hope the world will be peaceful and there will be no tear on children' s face.
Thank you,A... We hope so, too
