Product Description

Poetry is the expression of maximum meaning with a minimum of words. It is a way of communicating one’s true deeper feelings about an issue, which is best expressed—easily, flawlessly and genuinely—in the very midst of these feelings, and serves as a cathartic release of their underlying emotions. This book is a collection of poems that express my feelings and thoughts relating to my social, cultural, political, religious and medical educational-cum-professional environments; and of my expectations for the future. It also contains a number of poems from four contributor poets. It is divided into eight chapters according to themes under which the poems are arranged. The first seven chapters consist of poems on the following: Society; Eulogy and Appreciation; Love and Relationship; Poetry in Mandinka; Politics and Governance; Medical; and Religion and Spirituality. Chapter eight consists of poems from four contributors— two of whom are budding poets. Poetry in Mandinka are poems written in the Mandinka language. Mandinka is a native Gambian language, and is widely spoken across the West African region. Each of the Mandinka poems is followed by a prose translation of it in English. For some of the poems, most especially the political ones, the context in which they were written is given as footnotes. Where a poem is the result of collaborative poetry, the co-author is acknowledged at the end of the poem.
