Rima

Rima Najjar in a traditional Palestinian Embroidered Thobe
 

Rima 

 

Rima- connected

by family and Palestine.

She travels the world online and on foot,

following the art and the history

of and for Palestine.


Rima's goodness

(her greatness)

has a reach far beyond

the leap of literary awareness

and books, far beyond

the rainbow colors and hues of paint

and tile and trees and flowers in spring

all for and of Palestine.


Rima shares, shares the beauty she finds,

shares the challenges and routes

whereby humans connect

over and over through the years.

Rima shares knowledge and facts

and empathy and compassion

and character


Rima is as exquisite

as the roses her sister tends.


Where music and art for Palestine might be

she is there, in body or spirit

she is there for and of Palestine.
