The World In Our Words II is a global chorus of poetry, woven by voices from Nigeria, Morocco, Canada, America, Australia, Scotland, the United Kingdom, Poland, Indonesia, Sweden, and beyond. United across continents and cultures, these poets gather in one book to share what it means to live, to lose, to hope, and to begin again.
Within these pages, poems move across borders of geography, politics, language, and personal history, offering flashes of recognition, moments of deep comfort, and invitations to be challenged and changed. You will encounter verses that honour mother tongues, celebrate cultural roots, and open doors into worlds you may never have walked through, yet somehow feel you have always known.
This collection is a living testament to our shared humanity: tender, fierce, imperfect, and beautiful. It connects readers to the heartbeat of many lands at once, inviting you to slow down, listen closely, and find your own story reflected in the lines.
The World In Our Words II is more than a book—it is a community-built offering, created to be read, shared, and passed on. If these poems move you, please share them, and help this circle of voices grow.

With much love and appreciation,
