Gavin Bezuidenhout: I loved your piece entitled Wisdom of the Drum & was wondering if I could use it or something like it on my drumming website?

Magda: Oh my goodness, I've got tears in my eyes and I'm speechless. Well done! That reaction was caused by your Love Poem - She'll never know. I never knew that any male figure could be so in touch with a lady's emotion. The poem sounded more like something a lady would write.

Hester Lindenberg: I have stumbled across your poems on the internet, searching for a poem for my English Assignment. I just love your poem I am an African.

Pamela: I am writing a paper on the suffering of people who have Leprosy. Your poem Invisible was just the poem I was looking for to explain how these people feel. Thank you for sharing your thoughts with me.

Maria Noor: I'm from Singapore. It's a long story but to cut it short, my boyfriend is from Cape Town & I have been going thru the internet to know more about South Africa, it's culture, the people and esp. the language (Afrikaans). Being a poetic myself I fell in love with your short poem Only Love. You got a very informative & interesting website. Appreciate what you've done & I'm sure it's a labour of love. Congrats & more power.

J Sharples: I love your poem 'I am An African' more than words can describe (so I won't bother LOL!!) and was wondering if you would give me permission to put it on MySpace blog, with a link to your site?

Heidi Wheeler: My son (Gr 7) has chosen to do an English homework project on a "famous poet" and insisted it be a local poet. He loves your poetry and I was just wondering whether you would be able to give him some info on your childhood, please.

Roma Persaud: This is indeed a heart touching story (Ode to the Elephant). Well said in a wonderful poetry way.

Christinah Chabangu: I enjoyed your poem (Only Love) - it’s short, nice, simple and wonderful. If I didn’t know about LOVE I found my answer to your poem. Love is Love and I won’t describe it better than u. Thank u for showing me a light of love!!!!!!!!!!!

Larissa Meacher: My cousin sent me a link to your website and being of curious nature - I had to go and find out why he sent it to me! WOW I was really impressed .. not only by the content of all your research and articles / books you have been involved in .. but the total diversity of your Webpage! Art .. Poetry .. Inspirational articles .. your diary - phew where does this all end?

Ermelinde Mondriaan: I was sent one of your poems by a friend of mine yesterday and also your home page link. I have to tell you that I have not read poems in a long time, since yesterday I have literally devoured your poems and they have so resonated or mirrored for me. I have also sent some to friends of mine. I love your work. There are times when I want to communicate certain feelings and emotions and just can’t seem to find the words. Amazingly every time I am in that situation I go to your page and find just the right poem to send that says it all. I love your poems on spirituality as they deeply resonate with me. Thank you for the gift that you are sharing from your heart and soul. I for one feel very blessed by having received it. Keep the words flowing.

Sharon Paulus: As an ex-South African in NZ. Thanxs 4 reasons to believe ... I love Africa poem.

Antonio Esposito: Hi my name is Antonio and I'm Italian, I read for the first time your poem today, and I think that’s absolutely gorgeous! I lived in Botswana (Africa) for 5 months, because my girlfriend come from Gaborone. To live there was an experience incredible that changed completely my life. All that you wrote in your poem is absolutely true, I'm not African, I'm white but my heart is there and will be there for the rest of my life! I'm in UK now for work and i'm planning to go back in Africa maybe to live there forever, it’s my dream and I know that one day will be come true!!!! I will print your poem and I will save it with me!!

Grant Schnarr: I love your poem I am an African and was wondering if I could put it on our web-site at www.yesafricaconcert.com. Your poem captures much of my own sentiment, and hopefully, a growing sentiment among many others. I'm looking into your site more deeply. You are a man among men.

Michael Riccioli: I was looking for some business poems for my students and I came across your site and discovered your lovely poems. I was wondering if you would grant me permission to use some of your poems and transform them into English language exercises for my students (e.g. text recreation, reconstruction, gap-fills etc..) [WV: see the result here, great fun!]

Akeela Gaibie-Dawood: I, too, am enthralled by your stirring poems especially I am an African and I will certainly be informing my editor about your amazing work.

I have passed on the details of your website to a couple of my friends who I know will enjoy reading your works.
