September: A Month To Remember Poem by Alon Calinao Dy
September: A Month To Remember
It was a perfect time of opportunity
For the hired nurses to work in Ministry.
Everyone was getting excited and ready
Because leaving the country
Was the only way to feed the family.
Telling goodbyes to friends and family
Was the hardest thing to say.
Pretending that everything was alright
But deep down their hearts were weeping
'Cause nobody knew what fates were waiting
For them in the State of Kuwait.
September was the month to remember
For the nurses who joined hands together
And who promised to help one another.
My brothers and sisters, thank you for
Remembering this month of the year.
Thank you for the friendship that lasted a year.
This is a really lovely and moving poem, Alon. Loved it! Dawn xx
A beautiful write full of emotion of parting your country, family, and friends.Glad you had been happy throughout the year and for remembering the month in your well written poem.Thanks and best wishes.
I WAS THERE MYSELF ONCE UPON A TIME IN ANOTHER COUNTRY FAR AWAY AND IN ANOTHER TIME. EMIGRATING FROM IRELAND TO CANADA AT 17 IN 1954 TO WORK ON A FARM WITH FIELDS AS BIG AS COUNTY CLARE. SO I KNOW ALL THE LONELINESS INVOLVED IN EMIGRATION.
This is a nice tribute to you and all of the nurses who were a part of this poem.
