This poem is so beautiful...
Its what it is... We all have this around us, the beauty, the love, the compassion and it all...
We need to take the time of day and acknowledge, appreciate, cherish, love and be happy with what all we have around...
This beautiful world and life we have of our own.
On this land, there is that what's worth living for
~ Mahmoud Darwish
There’s on this land,
what is worth living,
The recurring of April,
The smell of bread at dawn,
A woman’s amulet for men,
Aeschylus’s writings,
The beginning of love,
Grass on a stone,
Mothers standing on the thread of a flute,
and the invaders fear of memories.
There’s on this land what is worth living,
The end of September,
A lady leaving the forties
with all its apricot,
The hour of sunlight in prison,
Clouds imitating a flock of creatures,
A people’s cheers for those going up
to their doom, smiling
and the tyrants fear of songs.
There’s on this land what is worth living,
There’s on this land,
the lady of lands,
the mother of the beginnings
and of the ends.
It was called Palestine
Its name later became Palestine
My lady: I deserve,
since you’re my lady,
I deserve life.
