Lizz Murphy — Poem 65: from Syria's children




She covers her face
with her headscarf
and a beautiful hand
her sleeping infant
limp-limbed across her lap
her grief as unshakeable
as the slammed iron gate





A poem from Syria's Children a sequence 
in response to a photo-story by award winning 
photojournalist Magnus Wennman 
titled Where the Children Sleep published at 
Mashable Australia. With thanks to Magnus Wennman.
