Big Loss Poem by MOHAMMAD SKATI

Those pretty people including my neighbor, Who used to live closer to my house, went Here and there, They went everywhere because their pretty Homes leveled to earth and their dreams too, They left everyone and everything behind them Unattended even by guards or even guard dogs, They abandoned all their pretty memories, Their jobs, their loved ones, and all they owned, They could not take other than what they were Able to carry like the precious pieces of gold, Their pretty hopes got buried under their destroyed Buildings and houses, their cars, and their furniture, Everything went with the wind because something Ugly, rude, ruthless, and merciless happened over there And led greatly into that big loss in everything and in everyone.
