Mother Of The Emigrant

by Paul McCann

Mother of the emigrant

welcome into your arms

those who suffer homesickness

for the land they have left behind .

Mother of the emigrant

open up the doors of communication

when understanding is hard to find .

Mother of the emigrant

shelter those who feel lost and alone

in a culture they have never seen before .

Mother of the emigrant

bring tolerance to different beliefs

and peace between tribes on every shore .

Mother of the emigrant

protect all those who have come from war torn backgrounds

to begin a new life somewhere .

Mother of the emigrant provide platforms

that embrace multiculturalism for all the world to share .
