About this piece
This poem is about how despite the differences in cultures and values of the commonwealth countries, there is something that unites them all.
One Language
One language
threads the different colours
of our diversities
together.
One language
joins our differences
at the seams.
One language
becomes the needle,
that stitches close
the gap of varying cultures,
and creates unity
amidst variety.
One language,
weaves together
fifty-six uneven pieces
into one quilt network.
