Background:
During the Israeli war on Gaza, the donkeys helped the displaced people more than any of the world leaders.
Deprived of water, denied of fare,
In Gaza’s siege, a burden to bear.
Donkeys emerged, compassionate haze,
Carrying the wounded in love’s embrace.
Himar*, symbol of compassion and grace,
In the heart of love, a sacred space.
Through war’s shadows, it bore the weight,
A silent hero at love’s steadfast gate.
*Himar is the Arabic word for a donkey.
