South African Verses

The Republic of South Africa is a land that I now know. From the mountains, desert, ocean, and grassy plains are images that I dreamed of instead of studying. A home of many cultures and ideas that match its beauty. In these pages, you will find some love, strength, beauty and humor mixed in with a little pain.

Imagine twenty-two different opinions of the same painting! Today we bring you twenty-two writers sharing their words in South African verses.
