Our New Label Poem by Rose Kanana
Our New Label
News flashed in all media
Our fate was sealed
‘They are not our own
They are an economic burden
They are a security threat
They have their own home'.
For decades the scorching sun had not spared us
Seated in a tarpaulin shelter
We had to endure-
Hope we had of retracing our journey back to motherland
Sooner than later
We clang on hope
We marveled at our big dreams
Hatched great vision inside the tarpaulin shelter
Those who understood our course stood by us
We have found hope, we have found love we are in our motherland.
Displacement, xenophobia.....we have lost the brother and sisterhood. Good message for us to rekindle humanity
Does this express the current displacement scenario globally? Thanks for sharing Rose
We clang on hope! ! Thanks for sharing this poem with us.
I love the atmosphere that you bring and the feelings that you bring in us.Whether in our life, country, heart love that.keep on going, it not the end.

Quite an emotional poem Rose. You have chosen your words carefully and delivered the message of hopelessness and hope at the same time. We clang on hope We marveled at our big dreams Hatched great vision inside the tarpaulin shelter Those who understood our course stood by us We have found hope, we have found love we are in our motherland
