Broken Dreams In The Mediterrean Sea Poem by MOHAMMAD SKATI

Our Mediterranean Sea has turned into A clear nightmare to all of those who Are crossing willingly into other worlds Of luxury life or any safer havens... Those poor emigrants pay very high prices Upon crossing into unknown havens looking For a better life to themselves and even To their whole families anywhere and everywhere... The pretty sea has turned itself into an ugly Monster swallowing all drowned emigrants and It will throw ashore all those drowned bodies... Horrible images of innocent kids drowned with or Without their parents throw a huge light on An on-going tragedies of those poor emigrants Who already have fled their homes unwillingly... Seas are no more prettier or even safer to all of Those fleeing emigrants simply because everything Has changed considerably and even remarkably everywhere... ______________________________________________________________________
