Our family at Islamic Relief UK shared an emotional and moving poem with us today and we had to share it with you. Inspired at one of the Winter Appeal events she attended with Mohammed Zeyara, 15 year old Juwairiyah from East London, wrote this poem hoping that it may urge people to help warm up the lives of refugees living in harsh conditions. This is FROZEN: | FROZEN | This is a dignified plead from me to you, Just about frozen; ‘tis the most I can do I ask for you to a lend a hand To bring hope to this broken land. Words will not do justice to what I feel For reality is almost surreal But as I lie on the hard, crispy grounds of Syria The winter has made us all inferior. I hope not to make you shed a tear Though if I were you, I couldn’t bare the ill, oppressed and full of fear So save a prayer, we’re dying, I Swear! The other day, whilst you were outside The sharp winds pushed you aside But before young Ali froze he cried- in that position, my entire family died. When the snow hit your home, you laughed so hard So you built a snowman in your back yard In your hat and gloves, your winter coat Whilst I’ve endured a dry, crusty throat. I mean, it must be different for you and I You have plenty of warm food supply I search for an end-of-week meal It’ll have to do, despite being as hard as steel. So as I look up in the night sky Praying for a miracle to drop by I ask god to send about aid I may be suffering, but I am never afraid. Please, Help us Spread The Warmth. GIVE NOW
