[Stephen Matlock · Rating 5 out of 5]

This is a collection of poetry, comprising poems that entertain, that explain, and even that instruct and admonish, from a young poet in Ghana. Some of them are whimsical and prosaic, such as the poem of a fish that just won't let itself be caught. Some are hopeful, expressing the wish for the people of Africa to build an intentional future. Some are personal describing relationships the poet has with his friends and loved ones. And some are hymns of praise to God.

This is a great book to read to get insight into the mind and heart of the poet.
