Maria Sohail’s Culture Poem:
The Cultures in our World,
As different as they are,
From every corner of the earth,
They come from near and far.
Given by our fore-fathers,
From birth in the womb,
Stays with us forever,
Until death in the tomb.
It is not religion at all,
Nor is it fact,
Our traditions and our ways,
Is what keeps us intact.
We all have our cultures,
That we should remember,
Londoner’s yes we are,
Each a significant member.
