African Women



I am an african women
A fearless person
With dignity and respect
I am strong as a lion
And also clever as a monkey

I am an african women
Who is proud of her self
Proud of her tradition
A pillar of strength
Hope to children

I am a river that flows
And all those who are thirsty can drink
They drink knowledge and perseverance
They drink motherhood
I am like nature
I give, expecting nothing in return

I am an african women
A leader but not a follower
I am the precious light
Needed in darkness

There is no one like me
I am smart and good looking
Call me pillar of strength
Call me mother
Because I am an african women

Khethelo did not realise that after his death, all his belongings will be given to his uncle Jabulani. Two months after the b

Selfish [Chapter 2]

Two months after Vusi had renovated the house with the money he made from his chicken farm, and the one he took from his older son Khethelo, Jabulani decided to take away everything Vusi had. He could not bear Vusi being praised and respected much more than him. Jabulani decided to first use his own daughter to take away Vusi’s respect. Jabulani did not care about anyone. His daughter and wives were just a burden to him as they never gave him a male child and Nonhlanhla was still not married at twenty five. Jabulani forced her daughter to sleep with Vusi’s younger son Sanele. Then Jabulani asked Vusi to make do ceremony, thanking the ancestors for everything they have done for them. The day of the ceremony came. Jabulani took care of all the arrangements, with the help of his wives and Vusi’s wives. Khethelo arrived an hour before the ceremony was set to begin. Jabulani, Vusi and Khethelo served the male guests with meat and traditional beer. Jabulani and Vusi served all the elde
