If we kill our nation with greed where will our children live? In foreigh countries? Here a sad father speaks with his child. Photo women from ittihad Al-Islamia group in Somalia who are in deep combat mood
Dear Child
When I think of you
I feel like weeping
Tears fill my eyes
Dear Child
When I think of you
I feel empty inside
I see a bleak future
Dear Child
You are the world
You are the child
You are the heart
Dear child
Somalia is bleeding
Deep in its blood
It is drowning
Dear Child
Somalia is burning
In the name of Islam
Insurgents are torching
Dear Child
Somalia is vanishing
In the name of government
Soldiers are wreaking havoc
Dear Child
It was my wish to raise you in peace
But that wish is hardly materializing
As you are born in a country of terror
When I think of you
I feel like weeping
Tears fill my eyes
It was my wish to raise you in peace ~ When I think of you ~ I feel like weeping ~ Tears fill my eyes
I cannot begin to say that I can truly understand what you feel, but as a parent - I know what it is to want the best for your child. God/Allah hears your prayers and wants peace, too. Sadly, greed has taken over and it may not end the way you and He want it. I pray that this is not the case, but that peace returns to your country and all will live in harmony.
I weep with you Abdi Noor! If only more people felt like you, things could turn around in Somalia, it is when they feel all hope is lost that they turn in all different directions, having lost their way. They need someone to stabilize their thoughts. I pray it will happen soon!
Dear Brother Abdi-Noor it seems children are under siege everywhere whether they are subjected to physical violence as over there or mental violence over here. I too had tears which have dried up and been replaced by pain in my heart. PLB&G, my prayers are with you and yours . Grangran-n-Baba.
PI novel set in Manhattan during the 1980s when art galleries and model agencies were the two most glamorous businesses in the world. Dangerously well written.
