Poets Against War continues the tradition of socially engaged poetry by creating venues for poetry as a voice against war, tyranny and oppression.

Houda Al Naamani

Tomorrow

Tomorrow
There will be another dawn another sunset
There will be another moon another sky
Tomorrow
A silvery mirror will break
A pretty doll will depart
A dark smoke will invade
         the eyes of a heartless night

But surely God will be there  
        Wiping out tears from children's face
Remedying the pains of a devasted race
That had always thought
Strength is the shepherds' warmth
Wealth is the mountains' breath

Snow and rain  had never died  
Streams and rivers had never died  
Shining stars will go on singing    
Angels hands cover with light
The weeping domes
Trees of love  fill with flowers
The broken homes
Tomorrow
There will be another dawn another sunset
There will be another moon another sky
Perhaps another Christ.
