Gaza in tears
Are journalists stoking fears
Or are they victims too
Of the mighty IDF crew ?
The Al Jazeera crew too is there
Tight in the midst of the battle
Capturing all the havoc
And the way the houses rattle
Many are shocked to the core
And pray there is no more –
But the calamity remains
And the hearts bear the pains
A future generation mowed down
And the world just reacts with a frown
Casualties rise by the day
As the mighty cannot be kept at bay
The outlook is grim
And filled with sorrow
God alone knows
What will come on the morrow

And so it goes with all wars.... of which there appear to be a never ending succession.
yes. its a sad state of affairs that before one conflict is solved, another begins. .and then there are also some unending border tensions, as with our country, and our neighbors..Let's hope 2024 brings some sanity and relief
