In Gaza's streets, a crisis grew,
Food, fuel, and aid, all locked out too.
Israel's blockade, a dire plight,
A looming famine, without a light.
The UK responded, with a stern face,
Summoned the ambassador, to a chosen place.
Fresh sanctions were placed, on settlers so bold,
Their actions condemned, by a story untold.
David Lammy spoke, with a voice so clear,
"This military escalation, is morally unjust here."
Fiery exchanges, in Parliament's hall,
As Priti Patel, questioned the UK's call.
Global experts warned, of a famine's might,
The Israeli government, blockaded day and night.
Ministers acted, with a sense of urgency true,
A ceasefire, and aid, for Gaza, to break through.
The White House frustrated, with no clear path found,
President Trump sidestepped, and Vice President postponed.
A joint statement, from leaders so fine,
Warned Israel, to end its military design.
The UN's humanitarian chief, spoke with a sigh,
"A drop in the ocean, of aid, passing by."
Sir Keir Starmer, called the situation so dire,
"Humanitarian aid, must get in, with no delay, on fire."
In the House of Commons, shouts of "shame" did ring,
As Lammy set out, the truth, with a voice that did sing.
An Israeli minister, said their actions so bold,
"Cleansing Gaza", "destroying what's left", a story so cold.
Lammy condemned, with a voice so strong,
"Extremism, danger, repellent, and monstrous, all wrong."
He accused Netanyahu, of isolating his land,
With a path, that's morally unjust, and utterly unplanned.
The Israeli ambassador, summoned to meet,
To convey the message, that the UK's actions would repeat.
Sanctions were placed, on individuals and companies so bold,
Their actions condemned, their human rights, to be told.
But Priti Patel, questioned the UK's call,
"Strong words, will do little, to resolve the real challenge, after all."
The UK government, acted with a sense of urgency true,
A ceasefire, and aid, for Gaza, to break through.
