Rare Flower – Life, Love and Peace Poems

ISBN 978-1-937570-10-1

Nov. 2012, 326 pages, hardcover

This new book by poet Ada Aharoni is a collection of deeply significant, moving and powerful poems. In brilliant poem after poem, Ada unfolds before our eyes new depths of human relations, the complexities and intricacies of love, and the joys and pains of life.
Influenced by the British Peace Poet, Wilfred Owen, Ada powerfully denounces the satanic concept and practice of war. As a woman and a mother, she condemns the killing of
soldiers by involving them in war situations, and she clearly demonstrates that in our nuclear age, the continuation of the practice of war can dangerously lead to the end of humanity.
Despite her urgent warning, her poems are full of hope, and they shed a bright light on the possibilities of peace between all cultures and religions.
Her wonderful and unique poems are a rare and great contribution to the creation of a better, more humane and safer “Global Village.”

Ada Aharoni receives the

Award” (Sept. 4., 2012)
