it only when the sea is safer than the land They want to save their children What sufferings do refugees face during their journey Ans They are beaten raped starved drowned and pushed from boats They suffer badly Why is a refugee camp not a real home Ans Because it feels like a prison there is no freedom comfort or respect How do people in foreign countries treat refugees Ans They insult them reject them and call them dirty Refugees feel unwanted Why does the speaker say insults are easier to bear Ans Because losing a child in war is a much deeper pain Why can t the speaker go back home even though she wants to Ans Home is still full of danger guns and fear What does home chased you to the shore mean Ans It means danger pushes people until they reach the sea What does home is a voice in your ear saying leave show Ans It shows that the home itself forces people to run away Why does the speaker say I don t know what I ve become Ans War and exile have changed her She feels lost Why does the speaker say she doesn t know where she is going Ans Her future is uncertain She has no clear path What does where I came from is disappearing mean Ans Her country is being destroyed by war Why does the speaker feel unwelcome in the new country Ans People there do not accept her They see her as a burden What does my beauty is not beauty here mean Ans Her looks are not valued in the new place She feels different Why does her body burn with shame Ans Because she feels she does not belong anywhere Why does she say her body is longing Ans She wants love safety and a real home What does sin of memory mean Ans Her memories hurt her Remembering is painful What does absence of memory mean Ans Forgetting makes her feel empty inside Why does her mouth feel like a sink full of blood when she watches the news Ans The war news hurts her deeply It feels heavy and painful What difficulties does she face in daily refugee life Ans Forms long lines cold weather and suspicious looks from people Why does she thank Allah in the poem Ans Because even with all the pain she escaped worse suffering in war What does a woman completely on fire show Ans It shows how cruel war is Women suffer terrible violence Why does she mention men who look like her father Ans It shows that even familiar faces can act violently during war Why is the poem written in free verse Ans Free verse fits the emotion Her story feels real and natural What is the main tone of the poem Ans The tone is sad fearful and full of pain What is the poem mainly about Ans It is about refugees and their struggles What message does the poem give about war Ans War destroys families homes and peace It brings fear and death How does the poem show racism Ans Foreign people insult refugees and call them dirty or unwanted Why can refugees not rest even in new lands Ans They face insults cold loneliness and fear Why is the boat an important symbol Ans It shows escape and the parents desperate love for their children What does the passport symbolise Ans Identity and belonging Losing it means losing home What do fences in the poem symbolise Ans Barriers rejection and the hard way to safety What does the line my beauty is not beauty here symbolise Ans Loss of identity She feels unaccepted and unseen What human message does the poem teach Ans We should show kindness and understand the pain of refugees Why is the poem titled Home Ans Because it shows what home means how home can break and how people long for it even in pain
