A Poetry Society Poet - Elyse Thomas

 

Of all the labels applied by humankind, the ones that divide us unnaturally into 'being' black or white of whatever shade our skin consists of; of all the nation-states we are meant to be of, there is one that is both natural and undeniable and that one should be celebrated. Culture. Wherever we settle as we grow, as we evolve, no matter what shade you are there is bountiful creativity at work as we move together, as we humans join up the dots. That creativity includes language, art and lifestyle. This poem by Elsye Thomas proves the point.
