A lot of us came from those 'hard working hands'. I am so grateful to my ancestors for leaving their country of birth and starting up fresh in Canada.

I like the tone of your poem, Gail, the emphasis on strong values and, as often in your poems, the love of the land.

You have really put your heart into this poem! And I like your concentration on the present: "I am from right here."

Indeed. And we are always right where we leave ourselves.
