Beautiful Africa: A colloection of Beautiful African poems (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781494229849)

Kumi William DuBois Y.S is a Ghanaian poet born on 5th May 1994 in the Eastern part of Ghana. He was attracted to the beauty of poetry and all its aspects at a very tender age. He started with poetry recitals in kindergarten, and then started writing his own poems in the junior high school. His style of writing is based on traditions from the African society. His style is influenced by his place of living. He fuses local languages in his writings so that less educated readers and listeners will understand him. He is also known as Koo Kumi when it comes to performing poetry on stage (spoken word). He takes inspiration from the environment. All the natural and artificial things around him inspire him to write his best. "Poetry is the native language of the heart. The heart needs no interpreter to understand the content of a poem" -Kumi William DuBois Y. S. The above is his definition of poetry. His dream of changing lives with poetry still lives on and he hopes this collection will start the first episode of the dream.
