Natiijada casharka

I can explain how Hardi uses language and structure to present ideas of home, upheaval and heritage in 'My Mother's Kitchen'.

Muuji qoraalka
The language around the upheaval implies that refugees lose their sense of belonging and purpose. Potentially, Hardi may have focused on mundane objects to show how refugees create homes for themselves. Arguably, the structure of the poem may reflect the constant upheaval of the refugees lives. We might read the "trees" in the poem as a metaphor for the speaker's heritage and family traditions. The final line may suggest that the upheaval has caused the speaker to lose their connection to their heritage.
