Poetry holds a special place in memorializing President Mills. Across Ghanaian cultures, when a great man goes to the village, there are several events that commemorate that man's life. There are dirges, dances, discussions and dedications. Out of all the literary genres, poetry tends to be the kind that symbolizes, and captures, the brevity of our sojourn on earth, together with an appropriate summary of our deeds. The various poems on One Ghana, One Voice evoke the essence of this patriot worthy of emulation.
If readers have a poem they would like to contribute, or feel inspired to write one, they are encouraged to submit their work to oneghanaonevoice@gmail.com. The poems are already being posted at One Ghana, One Voice, and will continue to be posted daily as they come in.
One Ghana, One Voice was established in March 2007 as a joint effort by Ghanaian poet Julian Adomako-Gyimah and Canadian poet Rob Taylor. The magazine profiles a new poem and poet every Saturday.
