Oh Israel,
how I love you.
When others try,
to push and shove you,
you are guided and protected,
by the God above you.
Oh Israel,
how I miss you:
your beautiful skies and mountains,
and your glistening rivers,
that flow like fountains.
From the Jordan River,
to the sea of Galilee,
to Jerusalem,
where my Savior,
died for me;
I love every inch,
of the Holy Land.
America is my home.
Still, with Israel I stand.
A Christian who has seen,
Christ's birthplace,
Oh Israel,
I long to see your face.

- Comment from author about the poem: I wrote this piece because I have been to Israel before, and it holds a special place in my heart. Now I am saddened to say that I just read that Israel is at a full scale war. Pray that God gives Israel the courage to fight and the over-all victory over it's enemies. Persistence is key

Do you actually understand what is happening in Israel. You can't simply visit a place and condone what they've been doing to innocent civillians. Both sides have committed war crimes so let's not focus our love on just one.
You are a religious man yet you have chosen a side. Shame on you and your religion.
Do not confuse this comment like you did with Darkfragrance and thank me for liking, you can thank me for totally disliking.
have a wonderful day whilst you're beloved Israel sends a few more bombs to kill innocent civillians.
regards
M (anti-warcrimer)
I am glad that you liked it enough to comment on it. ... and if you would like to start a conversation; I have been to Israel before.
