| "Poetry can transcend social barriers." - Refaat Alareer |
He writes what he sees
he writes what he believes
yet he is not a poet.
He speak with his words
he draws with his thoughts
yet he is not an artist.
He breaks barriers
he tears down walls;
there is more to Gaza
than we all know.
How they take pride
in their fruits- olives
as it was their legacy.
How they take pride
in their education
as it builds bridges.
How they love
deeply, madly with
the possibilities
of human will.
