Love Letter For My Country: Poems for South Africa

Dear South Africa,

This book serves as a heartfelt tribute, an ode to the beauty, resilience and spirit of our beloved nation. However, it is not just a celebration of our journey, our struggles, and our triumphs-a testament to the love and pride we hold for South Africa; it is also a raw portrayal of our nation’s descent into hardship and disillusionment. Through its defining poem, ＂Love does not stay where lies lie,＂ we confront the painful truth: our beloved country has become unrecognizable.

This book is a lament for a nation in ruins, where prosperity is but a distant memory and poverty engulfs our people. It’s a cry of anguish for the betrayal of trust and the squandering of potential.

Yet, amidst the rubble, there remains a glimmer of hope. Through our collective voice and unwavering resolve, we can reclaim the spirit of our nation and pave a path toward renewal.
