(cont.) the English is better in the poem, compared to in the Poet's Notes. in fact the English is very good in the poem, as is the 'storytelling'. congratulations on your first written poem. welcome to PH. on this poem page, the whole poem is NOT in the shaded area above the poem! hmm? did PH mess up again? to MyPoemList.

i've read the Poet's Notes and understand it but the English is not 'perfect'. HOWEVER, you have great potential. Besides, i do not speak any of these official languages of South Africa! Afrikaans, English, Ndebele, Northern Sotho, Sotho, SiSwati, Tsonga, Tswana, Venda, Xhosa and Zulu. OK, I AM INCORRECT; i DO speak a bit of English. :) (cont.)

An amazing piece of work! Each stanza articulates a different facet of your stance! Beautifully penned! (10)
