Poems from Africa to the World is a collection of fictional/real-life stories and historical events written in poetic form. Many see poetry as a piece of abstract writing that is very hard to connect or understand. But the author by turning real-life events and contemporary themes to poetry seeks to fuse storytelling and poetry together, to make them more enjoyable. This collection is peculiar because they are based on varied subjects ranging from American, Chinese, to Italian themes etc. The author being of African origin, most of the themes of the poems in this book are centered on African peoples and culture. But there are many other themes that talk about unique animals, like the lizard with a horn, and another that talks about one of the most "hidden" places of the world, Cape Melville, in Australia. The poetic-short stories are historic and thrilling, and some inspired by true-life events and experiences. A brief analysis of some of the poems in this collection are: Poem 1, BEAUTIFUL AMERICA, is a short story about what made America a great country. It is transformational and displays boundless insight.Poem 4, GIRAFFE IN CHINA, is a true historical account of how the first Giraffe the Chinese ever saw, came to enter the Chinese Emperor's courtyard - a gift from an African King to the Chinese people.Poem 8, LET'S GO SNOWING IN SOUTH AFRICA, is a fictional short story of a typical snowing day in South Africa. And this purveys the insight that it is not always hot and arid in Africa. Some parts of Africa really experience "severe winter," and have snow, just like Europe, and America, etc. Poem 34, ARO OF AFRICA, is a true historical account of how the British fought the Arochukwu people of the eastern part of Nigeria, in the Anglo-Aro war (1901-1902); and tells how the Aro people used mosquitoes to repel the first British invasion of Aro Kingdom. Poem 61, THE RISING SUN, is a story of how a man, to avoid forceful conscription into the Biafran army, disguised and lived like a woman throughout the nearly 3-year period of the Nigerian-Biafran Civil War. This poetic short story is historically gripping.The author's peculiar style of writing poetry follows his quest to make the understanding of poetic works easier and evoke a much larger audience to start appreciating poetry.

“Akwasi Aidoo’s Rhythms of Dignity is a remarkable, bold first collection. There is a rich diversity in range of form, expressiveness, experience, and passion. Reading through this work is a journey through the undercurrents of experience that reflect on living through the charged realities of the ‘post-colonial’ decades of our modern African not only with an intimate Pan-African awareness of history but also with a poignant sensibility of brotherhood, sisterhood and belonging. Clearly evocative of the age the poet has lived through, these poems have both a sharp clear eye on history, and an abiding tender trust in human relationships.” – Abena P.A. Busia, professor of literature, poet, and Ghanaian ambassador to Brazil. “Akwasi Aidoo weaves together in warm and passionate verses our timeless dreams of freedom, dignity and humanity which shall neither be deferred nor deterred regardless of what they say and what their SAPs (‘sanitize African passion’!) and Davos prescribe. Enjoy the dreams of ‘life and joy’ that is the Rhythms of Dignity. Akwasi is one of Africa’s foremost poets. Akwasi, you make us proud as Africans and as a part of humanity in what you sing and what you pen. May your Rhythms continue to inspire us and light the road to freedom.” – Issa Shivji, Emeritus Professor, University of Dar es Salaam, Tanzania. “In this collection of poems covering Africa, meditation and memory and everything in between, we hear Akwasi Aidoo’s voice mingled with the voices of our ancestors, our past and our future, calling to us to reflect as ‘life streaming hurriedly to us’. Woven within the lyricism of the words, the poems are a political and social commentary on life that evoke Langston Hughes and reminds us of the stories we tell and are told about us. Buy it, read it and be discomfited and comforted in turn.” – Ayisha Osori, author of Love Does Not Win Elections.

Diamonds from Dust of Sands of Africa is a scintillating and complementary book of poetry collaboration between two philosophical and intellectual South African writers that offers a vibrant, contemporary, and well-spoken poetic justice. As new authors, this work is Mr. Semenyas and Mr. Serokis very first published book of poetry, and with it they bring to the poetry enthusiasts and the literary community a fascinating multi-thematic poetry that speaks a mouthful of Africa and the world as a whole, and it aims at taking worldwide poetry to a whole new level. This book comprises a plethora of highly humorous, inspirational, and enlightening poems tackling matters of life such as love, religion, culture, politics, societal phobias, and socioeconomic conflicts with the most logical approach and depth that are conducive for learning and understanding. These two authors have different styles of writing, very distinct and expressive, which should ideally stimulate the interest of every reader whose eye catches sight of the book, and their writing abilities make an integral part of world literature.
