And the smoothing has becomeTo the garden / Everything bloomed around here / Then it was so perfect // If foxes came to the garden / And passed the fence / shield nearby they came here / to annex the yard to them. The seedlings were uprooted, the grass they destroyed / the olive tree was cut long ago / the dove sent with such a clear message / that it will never come back. “If I had a piece of heaven / part of land and sand / for the sake of defense / I would have done everything.” Amit joined the IDF on July 21, 1998, and after completing his basic training in the Givati Brigade, He served as a commander in the Shaked battalion and was the source of his pride, serving in various positions in Lebanon and Gaza, and never attempted to calm his parents.
