We Teach Love, Sir

Poetry for Palestine

Only in Palestine

Two Palestinian prisoners, one has been sentenced for 21 years and his friend has been sentenced for 7 years.

The friend who has the lowest sentence and after the approval of his mother, put a request to carry an extra 7 years on behalf of his friend, and to reduce the sentence of his friend.

His request was approved and they both were released  together yesterday, after 14 years in prison.

They celebrated together, along with their mothers, families and friends.

Infectious Disease Doctor On COVID Surge: ‘Concerned Is An Understatement’ – CBS Boston

“I think concerned is an understatement,” Dr. Mark Siedner, an infectious disease expert at Mass General Hospital told WBZ.

With hospitalizations approaching 1,400, Siedner said we’re not near where we were last Spring, but he’s concerned about the rate at which hospitalizations are increasing. “It’s only a matter of time if this trend continues,” Siedner said. “I think we’re at the point where we need to start pleading with people. You know, there is a breaking point here. We can’t continue on like this. There’s a maximum number of hospital beds, there’s a maximum number of ICU beds.”

Phantasm

Unlocking The Hidden Me

#poetry #haiku

Improvident chase

Dazzled by life’s conundrums

Blindfold vaporize

Life is all about chasing and accomplishing our dreams and desires but often we get so much entangled and bedazzled in the cobwebs of our Supreme thoughts thinking we conquered that we forget we really shall taste death and we are here sailing for a little while.

There will be an end to everything. What all we will take with us and leave behind will be love, blessings, our deeds and memories. We do will have to answer our doings, our sayings and then only we will discern, life was a phantasm.

Life is beautiful indeed, enjoy and live its beauty but don’t surmise it will be eternal because your eternity belongs somewhere else.
