In Gaza's realm, where innocence weeps,

Children bear burdens, where despair creeps.

Beneath the canopy of a troubled sky,

Helpless hearts, where hopeful dreams sigh.

Amidst the echoes of a distant storm,

Little ones, in tumult, their peace deform.

Shattered playgrounds, dreams in disarray,

Innocence tainted, as shadows hold sway.

Through war's cruel dance, where tears descend,

Their laughter muffled, hopes on a fragile bend.

Tiny footsteps trace a path unclear,

In the midst of chaos, their spirits persevere.

O, the silent cries of Gaza's youth,

Whispers of longing, searching for truth.

In the tapestry of sorrow they are entwined,

Yet resilience blooms in the tenderest mind.

Let the world bear witness to their silent plea,

Gaza's children, yearning to be free.

May compassion reign, may their skies clear,

In Shakespearean verse, their story we revere.
