Dreams of my Daughters If I were the Palestinian gynecologistwhose two daughters and niecewere slaughtered by an Israeli bombin Gaza recently, this would bemy way of telling you of sufferingoutraged. What did these beautifulgirls do to harm Israel? All innocent.All on the thin edge of the moment,opening their future, meeting lifemore than halfway, in love with hope,dreaming of becoming a doctor,a teacher, a musician. Here On this very splash of blood Lie torn notebooks, a comb, A towel and a kerchief to cover An all-too-fragile brain-case. God protect them in heavenas I could not protect them in hell.Give me the strength to believe --not in peace, for that word has nowlost all its meaning -- but thata more human race will springfrom the loins of other girlsby some miracle salvagedfrom such ruinous assaults,such soul-consuming hatreds.My lovely girls are gone. Can Irevive my will to trust once more?
