Utopian Gaza
The futurity of our visions!
Now a twinkling in minds,
may one day be a supernova!
So bright, we’ll comfort our eyes
with the shades of humanity!
So warm, we’ll quench our longing thirst.
Dreamlands thrive not only in heavenly realms!
Paradise begotten - by such dreams!
I dare not say it isn’t so!
Into the neverlands
our hopes shall hold hands.
Oh, how green the metropolis!
‘The Land’ - That once was home to barefooted children with vicious faces,
now eat bountiful grapes with flushed, plump cheeks!
There was a time when homes had black windows!
Now a twinkling in minds,
may one day be a supernova!
So bright, we’ll comfort our eyes
with the shades of humanity!
So warm, we’ll quench our longing thirst.
Dreamlands thrive not only in heavenly realms!
Paradise begotten - by such dreams!
I dare not say it isn’t so!
Into the neverlands
our hopes shall hold hands.
Oh, how green the metropolis!
‘The Land’ - That once was home to barefooted children with vicious faces,
now eat bountiful grapes with flushed, plump cheeks!
There was a time when homes had black windows!

Well thank you! I actually wasn't sure about this one to be honest. I felt there was a lot more I could do with it but one tactic I learned from high school poetry class was that many times it's better to keep a poem shorter than what you keep imagining it to be haha!
