Motherland

A Poem by Shiva Moghaddasi
 
I am at peace.
I am a woman of this land,
one of many women of my land.
We are strong, we are true, we are kind.
 
A flock of 13 birds each for a province, a territory;
surround me, remind me, silently:
of lives that have been lived,
blood that has been spilled,
and fights that have been fought.
Lest I forget!
 
Today is a new day, a new era.
Full of life, full of love,
here I am now.
 
I am at peace in this land:
Motherland.
Lest I forget!
