This is the author's debut book in his writing career. "Traces" is a collection of more than one hundred poems representing the happenings, views and feelings of the poet. Every poem represents how the writer felt at that point in time in which it was witten. It could be about spirituality, peace, love, war, politics and so much more. The poems in here were written over a period of years, from when the author was a teenager to now, a man in his twenties. It feels like sharing his diary with the world; stories of an African child in this 21st century. Some of the poems are about the experiences of the poet, others are about his perceptions of, and opinions about the world.
