The World Poetry Movement: OUR EARTH … OUR HOME

THE EARTH IS OUR HOME and we must take care of it from the fire of war, we must embrace and help the refugees and take care of nature, which gives rise to all forms of existence – World Poetry Movement

From Our Correspondent

Cairo, Egypt  

The World Poetry Movement, in a communiqué, signed by 101 poets from around the globe, has called for saving the earth from fire of war, helping the refugees, taking care of nature and ensuring that dignity, justice and truth prevails.

World-Poetry-Movement-Sindh-Courier-1“As long as the world does not find a clear path, and does not make a decision based on fair and balanced arguments to solve its current serious problems, the tensions to which we are subjected every day will continue to affect our confidence in the human future,” communiqué says.

“The World Poetry Movement notes with great concern the complex situation on the borders between Ukraine and Russia, between Colombia and Venezuela, among various complex political circumstances, the continuing migratory flows that lead thousands of men and women to continue living in a land without a homeland, the continuing escalation of the extinction of species, forests and rivers, the continuing hate crimes between classes and peoples, and calls on the world to reflect that THE EARTH IS OUR HOME.”

World-Poetry-Movement-Sindh-Courier-2“THE EARTH IS OUR HOME and we must take care of it from the fire of war, we must embrace and help the refugees and take care of nature, which gives rise to all forms of existence. THE EARTH IS OUR HOME and all peoples must be brothers to inhabit it in the best way. Dignity, justice and truth must prevail in our home. Our house must be a house for poetry and life, and not a house of horror and death.”

World-Poetry-Movement-Sindh-Courier-3“The World Poetry Movement, the poets who are part of it, the International Poetry Festivals, and the projects that constitute it, extend an invitation to the poets, festivals and poetry organizations of the world to unite in a great world action of poetry readings, artistic activities, concerts and forums, during the month of April 2022, to call the attention of the people on the vital and urgent need to defend our House, our Earth, and the dream of a humanity transcended from the kingdom of necessity to the kingdom of freedom and world peace,” Communiqué concludes.
