[bodytext] => Peace by Ashraf Gohar Goreja O Jerusalem ! There you stand In the glory of the day. Majestically, Gracefully, Above all faithfully. To testify my past And the future I may. You perceive my good And bad deeds of foolery. The sun couldn't burn The pages you preside History of my fathers And mothers of different faith. I was born and grew young, Got older and would die. But God bestowed upon you The breath that stayeth. O Jerusalem ! Could it be you That was meant? Solemn peace on the earth, And true bliss for every soul. A light in the darkness, A gleam of magnificent. Fair for the sight Were not you famous to console? Now my spirit has faded, And my heart is bleeding. Eyes look grim with horrendous fear And my features got sleazy. But your pain keeps growing Like a sinner's pounding tear Making the world around you, Bleak, powerless and crazy. O Jerusalem ! Tell me the secret; The secret of bloody trail. For how long we will betray you Like a dream that curtail. Temporal possession of history, And ever changing manifest, Pensive thoughts of mystery, That wise men often contest. O Jerusalem ! Bring peace in the world For heaven sake. Our children for centuries Have been waiting to hear, Trumpets of honor, The bells of friendship, And calls of peace. Glory for all faith and life without fear. You summoned my father, My mother called Eve. With miracles of magnificent, And ample prodigy at birth. Devine phenomenon made you befitting. I know the reason of deep malignant. In every heart that loves you For you are a precious jewel on earth. O Jerusalem ! Be vigilant. You still have to conserve the dignity, Of men, women and children of all faith. Acclaim peace, Precept honor, And glorify them all For me you are still alive Either you preach bliss or hate. Ashraf Gohar Goreja Copyright November 18, 2002.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
