Dillwynia Poets
Lost In The Generation
By Chantelle
Ali Cobby Eckermann is a yankunutjava
Kokatatha Kunga woman born on
Kaurna land in 1963, she was part of the
Stolen Generation she felt lost with the
People she was put with like her heart
Was not whole she only started looking for
Family early 30s when she found her
Family she was whole again, she felt she
Had a purpose in life, she was healed by
The land and people she felt at home at
Peace now, she's a strong beautiful
Woman who writes poetry about our life
In general and the Stolen Generation.
She speaks from the heart and no one
Can take that from her.
