The Gates of Doha

The Gates of Doha

Have I told you of the gates of Doha?
Have I spoken of their strength?
Have I told you of their beauty
Of gilt and patterns Arabesque?
Did I tell you how at night they shine
Under the Doha moon
And hint of elegance within
O marble, stone and glass?
Have I told you of the gates of Doha,
How they enclose and segregate
Protect and divide the inside from the out
And make me wonder about the family there?
Would they invite me in
If they could see me here
Outside the gates of Doha, outside of Arabie?
