"The Best And Worst Of Times" is a compilation of 9 poems that touch on: my childhood experience of the Rhodesian bush war; the loss of my Dad in an ambush on the farm, during the dissident/Gukurahundi era in Matabeleland (after Rhodesia became Zimbabwe); my experience of having to live and work in other countries due to economic hardship at home; the incredible unity of Zimbabweans as they stood as one in opposition to the 37 year long dictatorship of Robert Mugabe. The final poem is "Zimbabwe's Freedom Day" - a day I was fortunate enough to be a part of, in Harare, Zimbabwe. This e book of poems is utterly patriotic. As the very first poem makes utterly clear, I love the land of my birth. I loved Rhodesia; and I love Zimbabwe.
