The Holy Land
The land is soaked in blood and tears
the hate is very old
Like all the ancient stories
in the Holy Bible told
Each vows to kill the other
asks their God to make it so
Their vengeance masked as prayers
consume the Holy Land of woe
No leaders can convince them
their hate like a disease
There is no cure for this old

when thousands fall like dominoes

HOLY WAR FOR A HOLY LAND
One day after Earth Day…thinking about what Earth Day is celebrated for…
I’m also thinking about all the children on opposite sides of a war
Thinking of all the horrors on this Earth with which they must contend
I imagine, one of the things they have in common is they all pray for war to end.
How their parents

The Holy Land Invades our Space
Relaxed, refreshed
by a buoyant spring day
Buds, blossoms, blooms give way
to bombs, to bombardments
far, far away

Palestine will be Free!!!
POEM: Welcome to Palestine. The land of the prophets and the martyrs.
Let’s show show some respect, and bow down in humility…
Gaza may be small, but their angels are all over and as far as the eye can see..
Saying Herod, Nimrod, and Pharoah are saints. How can this be?
Believe me, They were barbaric tyrants,

Wherever I Stand It Will Be My Holy Land
Wherever I stand,
It will be my holy land!
Wherever I stand,
It will be my holy land,
Listen to what I say,
And read my lips Friend!
The world has dramatically changed,
And became difficult to re-fix or amend!
The world of double B, Bush and Blair,
The just, the right became wrong and unfair,
But who would question it now or care?
This reminds

Holy Land, Your Place, Your Flesh -
Would you crusade to remote regions
in search of that timeless tomb, the one made of seasalt & sandstone,
to towns tempered by the terror of war, windswept with worry,
Do prayer calls of the Jihadist singe the comfort breathing in your books of traditions,
could the Koran summon an instinct of journey in the feet of your hopes,

Holy Land Dream
Ancient stone and mortar,
walls crumbling with careless time,
the sun in the sky
somehow looks older here,
and the moon,
seemingly always full,
shines brighter.
I can feel an energy
like sweet incense,
easing my soul.
I close my eyes
and feel his touch,
I feel his oils drip
and slide down
the side of my face,
mixed with sweat
and tears of joy,
I am anointed.
All my troubles

All Roads Lead To the Holy Land
Hundreds of years would pass by,
and still the battles raged.
Arab and Palestinian enemies,
new wars would now be waged.
The land of milk and honey,
where riches do abound.
Is where you can always find,
some army hanging round.
What man doesn't understand,
he tries to take by force.
What he doesn't like
