Awsha started writing poetry when she was a child at the age of 12, and composed 100 measured poems within about a month, as she was affected by the house in which she grew up, where men of knowledge and sheikhs did not leave her father's council.

By the age of fifteen, she had gained national recognition for her powerful poems. Awsha Al-Suwaidi's success in a male-dominated genre opened the door for the next generation of female poets, as Awsha is considered one of the pioneers of Nabati poetry in the UAE and the Arab region.

The landscapes of the Arabian Gulf and the desert have inspired many of her poems, which deal with topics such as love, wisdom, patriotism, and nostalgia. Written in the Nabataean language, the poems describe her personal experiences in the UAE, as well as her past and rich culture.

The “Arab Girl” wrote many poems in various fields of poetry, such as spinning, social criticism, praise and Islamism, and she attended the councils of senior poets.

Her writings were influenced by Al-Majidi bin Dhaher and Al-Mutanabi, and her poems were published in many newspapers and magazines.

Today, Ousha Al Suwaidi is remembered for her profound work that paved the way for women poets in the Arab world. The songs of famous Emirati and Arab singers have revived the memory of a large number of her poems to be heard by people everywhere.
