“Where I’m From” by Melanie Poonai

Read the poem “Where I’m From” written by Melanie Poonai.

This writer was a winner of Foyle Young Poets.

I am a life filled with colour, From the chocolate brown that is my skin. I am from the sunshine yellow of my mother’s laugh, From the red and white of my brother’s favourite football shirt. I am from the crisp new white pages of a book, From the miserable grey of the street I live on. I am from green, pink and yellow; My garden in summer filled with flowers, From the terrifying black of the nightmares that haunt me. I am from the ginger orange of my buried cat, From the blue and gold of my ever-shot school tie. I am from the dark oak of my grandmother’s coffin, From the golden “Aum” pendant around my neck. I am from every pink scar etched into my body, From the red, orange and brown of the hot curry. I am from every identical colour of the twins I love, From the blue and green of a hospital ward. I am from all that has happened, And all that will be. “Where I’m From” by Melanie Poonai Read the poem “Where I’m From” written by Melanie Poonai. This writer was a winner of Foyle Young Poets.
