2019 was a disgrace
Refugees all over the place
We slam-shut our doors
To foster more wars
And caused the world to hate by race...

dreamers
voiceless refugees
fragile
          imperfect...

enduring

Canada has welcomed refugees by the plane load
Not a dry eye was observed as compassion flowed
Poor unfortunate folks
Such sadness it evokes
Forced to leave everything to travel a new road...

night rain 
has come and gone

without a soothing song 
and in its wake a howling wind

like the affairs of this world
some come and go without a song

and in a forgetting world
may they be remembered...

Born in Syria

They are our saints kin.

No! none is here 
vacuum flask only everywhere 
clown mask dances on darkest river 
burning water over there 
fire and fire! the bared fire 
on the bank of departure

As seeds, of a cold windswept hand
Now rooted in your land
What, growing up as wildflowers
Were, too, called foreigners.

Displaced themselves, are not these
For road-blown refugees
Not worth that time-budding chance
Cultured landscapes enhance?...

the needy crying
orphan without home
refugees helpless
prisoners suffering
the stranger lost
the sick lonely
war victims exposed
the discriminated 
power to save or torment
is in your hands
you the powerful man
you the free woman
Can make them happy...

The dead      
 
The dead are refugees 
To an immortal caves,
Hidden in the pockets of the earth,
They are escaping from sins 
 Exhausting by the pain .
We are the dead 
But we are walking.

Refugees,
strangers in a strange land,
living from the generous hand,
of strangers in a strange world.

We are all refugees,
living from God's generous hand,
living in a strange world,
waiting to be lead to,
the promised land.

Most welcome raza come here
Refugees,I invite you in belarus
We will give you wire cutters
You just have to cut the wires
There are no rules in dirty politics
Cross the border and go into Poland
Save your lives or freeze to death...

42-million refugees*
Stuck in our world like a disease
We see everywhere
Their God does not care
Yet we choose to ignore their pleas


* 42,000,000 refugees clearly establish
neither god nor man, government nor
religion, have a bloody clue what
life is about . . ....

Years ago bold the Sun
Saffron lands 
The waters depths plagued our mind
East was once a golden hue
The winds came gently
The August people steered
their heads converse as one
We were at peace
to the west
West is the best
Gold behests the streets
The Golden  crowds
free at last...

Full Yet Still Livable

Can country be full
And yet still be livable
With all of God's will.

Makes you wonder how many refugees we can accept
and still not affect the total balance of our economy....

My Worst Gift

My dad’s a lifelong villain
But I’m the one that’s sorry
Cos this year all my presents fell
off the back of a lorry

I didn’t get computer games
Or snazzy hi-tech sneakers
I got a dozen refugees
And six asylum seekers

Winter was years ago
we are  plagued by the sonnets of the Sun
all our yesterdays a furnace of heat was brewing
Celluloid viewfinders of more pleasant vistas
appear deftly
Tall Ships frozen in the Arctic
and the clouds azure in the Mediterranean
We are refugees from industrialisation
and deforestation...

Eastwards  Westwards
we know the direction
Playing tricks with the mind
We thought we knew the best
Down Convents Hill
the stone Angels sing
Desertion is not even an option
open the flanks
play your banjo
In evening we have everything to gain
in the holy calm
the marble passages
past our golden days...
