IV. Poem

Get into 2 groups and decide whether you want to write a poem, a spoken word, or a song/rap on what we just discussed.
Group ONE’s poem

Untitled

Memories of you fade,

Because you passed away,

Our people scavage pieces of our story,

To sew together the embroidery,

And tell the world of our history,

How our people suffered,

To keep and fight for freedom,

America left and said be gone.

Peb raws koj qab los rau lub teb chaws no,

Nyob tos tab si koj tsis no qab txog koj cov neeg nyob tos.

Group TWO’s poem

We are Hmong,

And this is our song,

We lived in the hills,

And got killed,

We were left to die,

And we had to choose sides.

Commies or the US?

Which one is best?

US shook hands with GVP,

Took us to the land of opportunities,

Now he is gone,

We will still stay strong.
