AFRICA ARISE: A Collage Of Classical And Inspirational Poems On African Diversity, Identity And Heritage
()
About this ebook
This skillfully crafted poetic masterpiece titled, "Africa Arise" is a collage of African inspiration poems designed to celebrate the beauty of African diversity in terms of its people, luminous landscapes and wildlife. In this catalogue of emotionally provocative yet intellectually stimulating book, the author unpacks uncommon syllables of how the African continent has stood the test of time and arisen with great resilience, endurance and forbearance, in the face of raging storms and tidal waves and yet remained unflustered. In esoteric language, the author has skillfully decoded the coded syllables on African identity, diversity and heritage, which for ages have remained an inexplicable subject. This book brims with provocative insights that provide a unique and ground-breaking entry into the wealth of untold tales and unexplored mysteries of the African land. It unveils the treasure and beauty of the African land and sends a clarion call and consciousness to all Africans to treasure and cherish it. Mother Africa is uniquely endowed by nature and beautified with the natural landscape scenery, heritage and diversity yet it is on the verge of losing the mark of its identity. With compelling narrative, he expounds on how Africa can transform the jangling discords of the continent into a beautiful symphony of unity and oasis of freedom. Therefore, this treatise is a wake-up call for all Africans to awaken from a deep slumber and revive the pride of Africanism and embrace the core values of love, solidarity, and human dignity.
Drawing from a plethora of his wealth of skills in poetic rhymes, Frequency Rhymes has written a book of startling grandeur and scope that rant and raves about the great panorama of African heritage from the primeval cataclysms that explored the continent to the economic upheavals facing much of the continent today. In incredible poetic language, the author tells the extraordinary story of how Africa overcame ferocious obstacles of war, hunger, and genocides to emerge as one of the greatest on the face of the earth. To stay relevant to current poetic trends, his writing style is delivered in an idiosyncratic and eccentric style, a very modern mix of meme-culture, quirky slang and unapologetic youth coolness. For this reason, the author is a revolutionary new voice in African poetry, emerging with authority, to claim his space and audience.
This publication is jam-packed with poetic insights that will take you through a journey out of the convictions and ordinary perceptions of Africanism to plunge into the greater depths of understanding the essence of African identity. The intellectually challenging, deeply provoking and incredibly inspiring, hard-to-get poetic rhythms and rhymes encapsulated in this book are set to revolutionise the lens through which you view the African continent and its people. The depth and density of poetic syllables it contains requires the reader to make a conscientious effort to digest its morsels, hence it is designed for those who are set on expeditions and adventures to explore the African content.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
––––––––
This publication appears in its current form due to the influence of several personalities hence a as token of appreciation, I would like to take this opportunity to acknowledge all of them: First and foremost, I would like to pay my tribute to those who are lovers of the African continent both in soul and at heart.
I would like to express my deepest and profound gratitude to those who have gone an extra mile to promote unity and solidarity in the African continent. This includes the government of African nations, Internationally acclaimed bodies, Social pressure groups, activists, businesses and individuals.
I would also like to express my sincere and most heartfelt appreciation to those who have invested time and energy in exploring the beauty of the wealth of the African land and preserving it for the next generations. This includes Museums, Libraries and other archival platforms that have retained a wealth of African content both in script and tape.
Allow me to extend a hand of appreciation to those who uphold and lift higher the African flag that does not have different colours but one, representing one nation, a people with one voice, one love and one heart. Those who have supported our African continent in the face of adversity, turmoil and rage.
Allow me space to further appreciate Great Poets of our time, specifically Professor Wayne Visser, whose incredible skill and anthology of poetic rhymes about Africa and its diversity has contributed immensely to the upliftment of the luminous continent and its rainbow people. His exceptional poetic writings style coupled with a sense of deep love for Africa has immensely influenced my writing.
Further tribute goes to the Heroes of faith both fallen and living: Martin Luther King II, who coined his poetic speech titled, "I Have A Dream," which became a source of inspirations to millions across the globe during trying times. I would also like to pay tribute to the former South
