Land Of My Birth

By Jinge Norvall-Andrews

Land Of My Birth is a collection of poems about Rhodesia/Zimbabwe and the journey through our beloved nation's short history. For those patriots no longer living in Zimbabwe, I know how you feel.
I have longed for your verdant valleys - drenched
in emerald light; I have dreamt
of your sun-kissed mountains
And solemn granite domes;
I have wept for the wilds
I once called home,
and ached for the day
I might return;
I have longed for you,
land of my birth -
I still long for you -
my home.

Jinge Norvall-Andrews

I am a poet and photographer and have written poetry since I was very young. Most of my poetry is about life in Africa, the continent I call home. Born and raised in Zimbabwe, I am aware that Zimbabweans have been scattered to the far ends of the earth, due to political and economic hardships here at home. Many of these displaced Zimbabweans relate to the word-pictures I paint of "home" and have asked me to publish my work. Child of Africa is my first e book. More will follow.
