Poetry therapy – Aciro on joy

Joy is like a rain falling down with sweet memories and cools our heart when thirsty as a blessing from God and tastes good.
I wish I could go swimming / bathing in the rain with a smiling face.

Aciro Adelaiide Opsa, a Primary School Pupil, made this drawing and wrote this poem.

At the height of the Lord’s Resistance Army (LRA) insurgency in Northern Uganda, CPAR Uganda (at the time the country office of Canadian Physicians for Aid and Relief) implemented a Peace Building Project in Gulu. As part of the project, primary school pupils were encouraged to express themselves through drawings and writing.
