Where the Olive Trees Weep: Poems of Exile, Resistance & Longing for Home

This book is not just a collection of poems-
It is a journey, a passage through the heartache and hope of a people,
Whose struggle is painted on the canvas of history,
Whose pain is etched in the sand of their homeland,
And whose dreams flutter like the wings of the birds that never leave.

Each poem here is a thread in the tapestry of Palestine-
A tapestry woven from the fabric of exile, resistance, and love for the land.
It is a story of a people who have known loss,
Yet have never let their spirit be broken.
From the hills of Nablus to the shores of Gaza,
From the refugee camps to the streets of Ramallah,
The heartbeat of Palestine echoes in every verse.

In these pages, you will find the voices of those who came before us-
They speak for every mother who has lost her child,
For every father who has buried his dreams,
For every child who grows up knowing that freedom is a distant star.

Through these poems, we remember.
We remember the past, we honor the present,
And we dare to dream of a future where Palestine is free,
Where the land is ours once again,
Where the olive trees stand tall, and the sun never sets on our dreams.

This is the poetry of Palestine-
A poetry of pain, of hope, of defiance,
But above all, a poetry of resilience
