"Broken, But Not Defeated: A Poem for the Poor of Turkey After the Earthquakes"
......................................................
Amidst the rubble and the dust,
Lies a broken land of trust,
Where once stood homes, now just debris,
And families searching for their keys.
The poor, they suffer the most,
Their bodies scarred, their hearts crushed and lost,
With each aftershock, they tremble with fear,
Hoping their loved ones are safe and near.
Their cries go unheard in the chaos of pain,
As they struggle to keep their hopes from being in vain,
With no roof to protect them from the pouring rain,
They sleep on the streets, under the open sky's disdain.
Yet, in the midst of all the strife,
They come together, helping each other through life,
With strength born from unity and love,
They work to rebuild what they've lost and above.
So let us not forget the poor of this land,
Who endure earthquakes with a heart full of sand,
Let us offer them our hands and our hearts,
And be their light in the dark.
