THe GULF WAR!?!
It was 2nd August 1990 when the Gulf war started. When bombs started to hit Kuwait. It was scary. People were scared, and didn't know what to do. Most people tried to get out of Kuwait for their safety. But sadly they couldn't.
What I remeber we did is we stayed in our home for a few days. Until, one day my mother took me and brother to the basement and waited for my father to call us. I didn't know what was happening until we reached to my aunts house. We were going to stay there until the war ended.
Hopefully when we reached there we saw my grandparents, cousins,my aunts, and uncles. They were not all there because some are out of the country. So when my grandmother wants to make sure that my aunt and uncle that are out of the country fine, she had to go to Bagdad and phone.
I remeber the time in my aunt that was 9 years ago, that seems like only a few months ago. Also the time when me and my cosuin use to wash te dishes and dry them. I remeber my mother crying because my father use to go out everyday. He made her so worried.
Finally after all the things that happened and the P.O.W 's that were taken, the War Ended. And, until today we wait for our P.O.W 's to come back. Some have come but we wait for the rest to come.
A Poem I wrote:
P eople of War,
O f Kuwait
W ill come back one day.
