To work together \u00a0and collaborate with many \u00a0big names and great and influential poets of \u00a0the \u00a0world, \u00a0is \u00a0not \u00a0an \u00a0easy \u00a0job. \u00a0 \u00a0 Siti \u00a0Ruqaiyah&#8217;s relationship with these famous \u00a0poets must have been fostered for quite sometimes. As \u00a0a \u00a0Malaysian \u00a0I \u00a0am very proud \u00a0of \u00a0her \u00a0efforts,dedication and achievements \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0. \u00a0 \u00a0.<\/p>\n<p class=\"s6\">\u200bSiti Ruqaiyah \u00a0has also \u00a0chosen \u00a0the title \u00a0of \u00a0her \u00a0poem \u00a0&#8220;Salam \u00a0Untuk \u00a0Davos or Peace Be Upon You Davos&#8221; contained \u00a0in \u00a0this anthology, \u00a0as \u00a0the \u00a0title of this anthology. \u00a0In \u00a0myopinion, \u00a0this \u00a0 title, coincide accurately and greatly as the best title of the anthology \u00a0 that \u00a0presents peace, anti-war -themed \u00a0poems. Known to everyone especially Muslims, \u00a0the word &#8220;salam&#8221; \u00a0is \u00a0derived \u00a0from the Arabic word \u00a0meaning peace and becomes greetings that brings salvation and well-being not only in the world \u00a0but also in the hereafter, \u00a0which is the day that all mankind will be resurrected \u00a0to meet his Creator,to receive a recompense equal to what has been done throughout life in this \u00a0world. Islam \u00a0attaches \u00a0great \u00a0importance \u00a0to peacefulness andsecurity to all lives. \u00a0Islam also \u00a0encourages human beings \u00a0to \u00a0love and \u00a0pray \u00a0for each \u00a0other&#8217;s welfare. \u00a0 When meeting \u00a0someone \u00a0or a group \u00a0of \u00a0people, \u00a0Muslims \u00a0are \u00a0encouraged to initiate goodness to the person or group encountered, by saying&#8221;Assalamualaikum&#8221;which means \u00a0&#8220;peace upon \u00a0you&#8221;, and the one on the receiving party is obliged to answer it with the greeting &#8220;Wa&#8217;alikummusalam&#8221;which means, &#8220;and \u00a0peace beupon you too&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p class=\"s6\">\u200bWhy &#8220;Davos&#8221;? \u00a0It is known that Davos is the World&#8217;sannual economic forum . Human being is a special servant of God , who has soul, mind and body. Knowledge, Faith is thefood of the soul, but the economy is the material need for physical requirements. If food supply is threatened, humans canact violent like animals. Therefore, it is not surprising that humans are willing to kill and fight solely to meet the physical needs of the body. Thus, the second series of this peaceanthology is given the title of &#8220;Salam for Davos&#8221; which expectsthe annual economic forum to discuss grave matters of human survival in a transparent, justified manner, to create economicbalance and equality indirectly to serve the whole world \u00a0who occupy the planet Earth. Is it (the World Economic Forum)really transparent to achieve that goal? It is the nature of human beings to love peace and justice, and poets have sensitive soulsand they are not happy , if mankind needs are not met, so thisanthology suggests some answers to create conducive means to a good peaceful living.<\/p>\n<p class=\"s6\">\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0In this Peace Be Upon You Davos, Siti Ruqaiyahworked together with 16 world-renowned poets publishing another bi-lingual peace anthology series which she worked onand translated, after &#8220;Khabar Dari Strasbourg\/News From Strasbourg &#8221; \u00a0which she published in \u00a02017.<\/p>\n<p class=\"s6\">\u200bSiti Ruqaiyah herself wrote 14 poems in this \u00a0anthology , starting with &#8220;Peace Be Upon You Davos&#8221; and ending with a poem titled &#8220;Between Stolen Glances&#8221;. Peace Be Upon YouDavos is loaded with cynicisms, on the plight of the victims ofwar who suffered and forced to be refugees . They arerepresented by Osama, Mohamed, Shaif, Brahim and Ziaur. Warhappened solely to fulfill the agenda of great powers with theirgreatest economic sources in the arms trade. The great powers ofthe world have never fought each other but cunningly waged their proxy wars for the sake of their arms trade. Siti Ruqaiyahcynically clings to the Davos-based economic forum andinvokes hopes to return to universal peace values needed by everybody.<\/p>\n<p class=\"s6\">\u200bThe poem Alleys of Paradise 2 revolved aroundrelationship, which ended up in a break-up and \u00a0split due to differences of beliefs. This Poem is rich in metaphor. The poem Sketches of Love \u00a0described \u00a0situations that even in a violent,war-torn communities, the human soul amongst the sophisticated \u00a0armies of Israel, men eventually succumbed to their consciences when asked to do things contrary to their soul. This message \u00a0is \u00a0featured in the form of a \u00a0true \u00a0story cited \u00a0from the \u00a0 Haaretz.com online newspaper. The poem When I Met You, Prayers For Dad, Are You Happy Now, Poem For ALittle Brother , Getting To Know Brother, Existence, Sands ofSri Lavender, and I Really Love You Very Much aredocumentation of personal and private feelings and expressionin nature.<\/p>\n<p class=\"s8\">When I Met You , is an expression of relying to the divine intervention of God to solve problems according to the rites of the sufi as In Islam. While Prayers For Dad was a personal impulse having to leave a beloved father who passed away whilethe author had to leave the country. However , the love \u00a0between \u00a0a daughter \u00a0and the father \u00a0is inseparable. Although \u00a0far away \u00a0and unable to \u00a0attend the father&#8217;s burial , the prayers from a loving, devoted, righteous child will be fulfilled by God.<\/p>\n<p class=\"s8\">Are You Happy Now? is about difficult realities in a relationship between two people who ended up in a parting.Poem For A Little Brother is also very personal in nature, about love between brothers \u00a0who are reminded of the greatness of sacrifices from a brother to his younger sibling.The poem Getting To Know Brother is also a personal one, about the \u00a0author who remembered stories of her mother who \u00a0never forget her dead brother after \u00a0reading a poem written by her friend Ibrahim \u00a0about his son \u00a0Irvin who also died young. While the \u00a0poem Existence, I Really Love You and The Sands of Sri Lavender \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 portrayed the author&#8217;s hopes in love to \u00a0last forever whether to her beloved ones or to her homeland.<\/p>\n<p class=\"s8\">The second \u00a0contributor of the anthology, Professor Mohamed Abdul Aziz Rabie contributed \u00a0four \u00a0poems \u00a0in this anthology, \u00a0including &#8220;Do \u00a0You Have A Clue?&#8221; \u00a0In \u00a0this poem, Mohamed used questioning technique about \u00a0the weaknesses of the social and economic systems and injustices of the world \u00a0towards the poor and the weak, by saying that the safety and well-being of the world might be enjoyed if they did not manipulate the weak and poor. \u00a0In this life, to achieve justice is\u00a0very \u00a0difficult. \u00a0 But man needs to be sincere and commited to create justice on this earth. However,because many humanbeings are greedy \u00a0it is impossible that can be achieved easily.<\/p>\n<p class=\"s8\">While through \u00a0his poem &#8220;Farewell&#8221; \u00a0Mohamed became spokeperson to all mankind who love peace and happiness. \u00a0Ahope that \u00a0will \u00a0never \u00a0come. \u00a0The poem \u00a0&#8220;Let \u00a0the Sun \u00a0Shine&#8221; \u00a0is \u00a0 \u00a0indirectly \u00a0 an answer \u00a0to the poem &#8220;Farewell&#8221; \u00a0which invites \u00a0people \u00a0to forget their sufferings \u00a0and enjoy life as what it is. It&#8217;s clear on \u00a0the first \u00a0and \u00a0second lines of the poem that reads, &#8220;Let the sun shine again &#8221; and &#8220;Sing \u00a0your favorite song&#8221;. Likewise, his poem &#8220;Anniversary&#8221; \u00a0is \u00a0a hope of \u00a0a \u00a0 safe, \u00a0peaceful and happy life besides family and friends that brings much happiness to us all.<\/p>\n<p class=\"s8\">If anyone \u00a0expects \u00a0every poem to be in stanza forms, \u00a0then \u00a0it is a big mistake. Hungarian \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0Literary \u00a0figure Istvan Turci, indirectly \u00a0describesd that \u00a0poetry in particular poems can be \u00a0presented \u00a0in other forms. Istvan Turci \u00a0in \u00a0all \u00a0four poems in this anthology writes his poems in the form of interesting short prose which is the prose poems. Through his &#8220;Rilke&#8221; using metaphorical elements, \u00a0he managed to touch the reader&#8217;s \u00a0emotions. All \u00a0of his \u00a0poems in \u00a0this anthology, such as &#8220;Rilke&#8221;, &#8220;Brightness \u00a0And \u00a0Darkness&#8221;, &#8220;Folk \u00a0Song&#8221; &#8220;As If \u00a0Emerging \u00a0From \u00a0Myth \u00a0(My Days In the Mountains)&#8221; are \u00a0all written in \u00a0the form of short prose \u00a0like essays using lots of metaphors. I think \u00a0it&#8217;s \u00a0very \u00a0interesting and effective \u00a0ways of writing poems in varieties like this.<\/p>\n<p class=\"s8\">Cordoba-born Argentine poet who lives \u00a0in \u00a0the United States Luis Alberto \u00a0Ambroggio, \u00a0contributed \u00a0two poems \u00a0in \u00a0this \u00a0anthology. \u00a0His poem titled &#8220;Father\u201d \u00a0was written after his father&#8217;s 90th birthday, \u00a0indirectly \u00a0representing \u00a0children who remembered their father&#8217;s sacrifices to his children. Through this poem he \u00a0used \u00a0the \u00a0technique of re-impacting \u00a0and thanked the father for all his sacrifices in raising him to grow up as a human being who gave \u00a0a lot of benefits for \u00a0the \u00a0community. \u00a0 This \u00a0is a \u00a0reality \u00a0that we \u00a0cannot afford to ignore in this life. Where would hope live and breathe air of peacefulness if the child isunable to appreciate the services of others, especially the fatherhimself. This hope was expressed by him through his secondpoem titled,&#8221;We Want to Breathe Air of Peace.<\/p>\n<p class=\"s6\"><span class=\"s7\">\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0<\/span> the Syrian-born \u00a0 \u00a0poet Osama \u00a0Esber who lives in california today, can&#8217;t hide his feelings about the importance of peace and security and is upset that his homeland is \u00a0in turmoil of war . \u00a0All \u00a0his \u00a0hopes \u00a0and regrets are \u00a0expressed \u00a0in his poem,&#8221;Mother&#8217;s \u00a0Day&#8221;,&#8221;King \u00a0of the World&#8221;, &#8220;Waves \u00a0in Childhood&#8221; and &#8220;Question Marks&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p class=\"s8\">Dr. Maurus Young, \u00a087, who was born in China now living in Paris and is president of the World Congress of Poets did not miss sharing three of his poems in this anthology, \u00a0titled \u00a0&#8221; My Story&#8221;, &#8220;A Beautiful Leaf&#8221;, and &#8221; A Jar of Wine&#8221;.

The \u00a0poem\u00a0consisted \u00a0of three stanzas, \u00a0poured \u00a0in metaphorical and symbolic forms.

In this poem he portrayed disgust of \u00a0war \u00a0of ethniccleansing. This was evident on the first row of third stanza:<\/p>\n<p class=\"s10\">\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 I counted the pellets in a number of holes in your head.<\/p>\n<p class=\"s6\">The memories of the Balkan Wars were fresh in his mind and described the cruelty of \u00a0man who is hard to stomach.

While in \u00a0&#8220;Hatred&#8221;Padmaja invited the reader to stay away from this \u00a0negative \u00a0trait \u00a0because, \u00a0hatred \u00a0does not give anything good or \u00a0will \u00a0result in \u00a0other \u00a0negative \u00a0traits \u00a0that \u00a0destroy \u00a0oneself. The author \u00a0wantedto invite \u00a0people \u00a0to show compassionate feelings to their fellow human beings for the sake of respect and peace in this \u00a0 world.<\/p>\n<p class=\"s8\">Ending my analysis of this \u00a0anthology, published by Kultura Snova, Zagreb, Croatia under the poet Zdravko OrdorcicI once again took \u00a0this \u00a0opportunity to congratulate and expressed that I am proud of my compatriot, Siti Ruqaiyah\u00a0Hashim who had managed to \u00a0produce a poetry anthology \u00a0themed around peace and anti-war stance for \u00a0the \u00a0world. \u00a0Thank \u00a0you \u00a0and \u00a0congratulations \u00a0also \u00a0to all \u00a0her famous \u00a0friends from \u00a0all over the \u00a0world \u00a0who had contributed \u00a0verses of great and interesting \u00a0poems, \u00a0to be laid out in this book for the world to think and ponder the voices of the poets. I \u00a0believe \u00a0her love for peace will \u00a0certainly \u00a0record \u00a0history on the world peace map, which \u00a0will indirectly documented that the world\u2019s inhabitants \u00a0love and crave for peace and no-war. I \u00a0am also \u00a0personally \u00a0happy \u00a0and with a \u00a0 willing \u00a0heart \u00a0will \u00a0provide \u00a0as \u00a0much \u00a0help as I can if \u00a0that \u00a0desire \u00a0is \u00a0 to be realized. In joy I close my \u00a0writing \u00a0with \u00a0a poem of my own.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"s3\">GOD IS THE CREATOR<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"s11\">God is the \u00a0Creator<\/p>\n<p>the most
