Gershon Wolf Poet Couplet

One Leader Heard their Cries

      Weary of all the killing and death
        Israelis and Palestinians hold their breath

      In hopes that the one leader who heard their cries
        has crafted a deal wherein no more innocents die

Kim Rodrigues October 9, 2025 at 5:59 PM Praying and hoping! Gershon Wolf October 9, 2025 at 6:13 PM It does look like peace may actually break out soon. Incredible.

Robert L. Hinshaw October 9, 2025 at 2:35 PM He heard their cries indeed, Gershon! I pray Trump gets the Nobel Prize! He has truly worked for peace. By the way can anyone tell me why obama earned the Prize? Just for being an average president maybe??? Gershon Wolf October 9, 2025 at 6:16 PM Trump should be a lock for the Nobel if this deal is consummated. As for Obama, I gave up on this peace prize the year it went to Yasir Arafat. Talk about a farce!
