3rd Place, Certificate of Excellence for our collaboration poem, 

Thank you for the honor and your hard work.

Title – Orphans of War

Orphaned children of war,
Are hungry for peace that’ll crease
Away the trauma that resides, never sees
The light after wounds, amputations that are core

To surviving the war. As children
Whose childhood was decimated
By loss, parents, safety, laughter, loved,
Replaced by uncertainty, confusion, a burden

To those who survived with them, unable
To function in a world where war
Is the norm, peace is a broken contract far
From the ideals of humanity that are incomparable.

Wars are nothing but a destruction of humanity
Loss of kindness, sympathy and love
Domination of a power over the world
Killings of many innocent women and children

Many physical scars are there
But psychological scars will never be decreased
It will destroy the innocence of children
Who are the victims of wars

Orphans of wars
Become victims of permanent fear and anxiety
Their sufferings are equal to God’s sufferings
Their pain means a lot.

Accolade and Review for my acrostic poem, TUMULTUOUS

Malak Kalmoni. Chehab Excellent acrostic poem, Malak, replete with the most heartbreaking images! The violence, the grief, the blood and death are all so vividly portrayed. Your tone is courageously sincere, and your descriptions are balanced and authentic. Those poor orphans whose trauma is endless! Poetically this is a most poignant ending. Superb poem, thank you so much for sharing it. By Linda Powers O’Dell

TUMUTUOUS

T urbulent times are terrifying as
U ncertainty settles in the bones in a
M ishmash of tumutuous feelings where the
U nreality of the horrific events of amputees,
L ost heads, empty chest cavities, blood
T rickling, soaking the rubble, ground, family
U nrestrained in their grief of inhumane loss
O utnumber those left of the family tree, now most are
U nder the rubble of six feet under. Who’s left to
S upervise the orphans whose trauma’s endless.
