Although I'm not that much of an artsy person, I tend to appreciate a good piece of art every now and then. So, I decided to post a few poems about Palestine from the net.

Where is Palestine ?That was kind of haiku-like, but let's get one in Arabic. The title of this poem, written by Mohammad Edgheim, is Palestine... for the Heart and the Eye.
Guess what ?
They want me to forget
Forget my Country
Palestine
They said
Come to our Country
Our Country is your Country
Our home is your home
But your Country is our Country
And your Home ???
Will be demolished
Where is Palestine ?
We will help you find a job
We will send your kids to school
We will give you food stamps
You will join our club
Slick hosted a fool
And forget about Palestine
I said
What you are talking about ?
You never understood
And you will never understand
This is my Mother
My Ancestor's Land
My eyes, my Heart
My honor, my right hand
How can I forget ?
Palestine The Coast
Palestine Inland
Bethlehem's Ghost
Jerusalem's Soul Of God
The Olive Tree
In my back yard
The victim of your Jet
A kid missed his Dad
The Golan's height
The raid of Baghdad
Heart of Palestine
I will add to what I have said
You don't see what I see
Your tyranny will come to an end
From Palestine you will flee
The lucky ones will be dead
Unless , peacefully you come to me
With clean heart, and clear head
I hug you, you hug me
Praise The Lord
And Our Country Palestine.
فـلـسـطـيـن ا لـقـلـب وا لـعـيـنJust for anyone with an art sense. I'll be putting more when I have the time.

مـاذا أ سـمَـع ، مـاذا أ سَـمـع فـعـيـونـي مـن ا لـقـهـر تـدمـع
رأسي ا لـذي با لمنطق يقـنع يـكـا د مـن الآلا م يـتـصــد ع
وقـلـبي مـن هــول ا لجـريمة يـكا د يـتـفجـرغـضـبا يـتـقـطع
مـن يـدافع عـن نـفسه بحـجر يـقابل ا لـيوم بطـا ئرة ومـدفع !
شـعـب بـرئ مـعـتـدى عـليه مـن إ سـرائـيـل والعـالم أجـمع
شعارهم الكـبيريـموت قهـرا والصغـيريـنسى فـلسطين كـمرجع
لا فـلا والله لـن يـكـون لـهـم لواغـتا لوا كـل الشـعـب سـنرجَـع
عهـدا سـنـقاوم الغاصب المحتـل إلى أن تعـود ألأ رض ونـرجَـع
هـل غـدا الدفاع عـن العـرض جـريمة وتـحـرير الأرض أبشع؟
من يدافع عـن بيـته وأرضه ليحـمي أولا ده والظلم عـنهم يرفع
مـتـهـم بـالإ رهـا ب والعــدوان حـتى يـذ ل ولـلأ شرار يــركـع
شعـوب ألأرض المضلـلة عـفوا هـل الحـق والعـدالة ثوب مرقع؟
هـذا قـدر فـلسطـين وشعـبها قـتـل وتـنكيـل فماغـيرالدفاع نصنع؟
سـوف نرجَـع سـوف نرجَـع رغـم إسـرائـيـل وأصـدقا ئها أجَـمع
