Home is not a place
it could be anywhere when
you are truly loved
Nazanin Zaghari-Ratcliffe is a British-Iranian citizen who was arrested on this day three years ago "for allegedly plotting to topple the Iranian government." She's been held captive ever since.
This year, supporters have been asked to write Haiku poems about what home means to them to hang from the tree. Here's the poem written by her husband, Richard Ratcliffe. If you wish to support this campaign, please share Richard's haiku or write your own poem using the tag #haikus4home.
