Morning
South Africa is a magnificent place with its natural beauty for wildlife , mountains,whales and waterfalls and architecture antiquity which is one of the most beautiful countries .while the morning means that it is time to get up and get ready for the say or time to get on with your life. As the curtains add an orange glow to the morning light, every morning in South Africa the perfect sunrise shines under the door like a grin, yet gives the shutters a halo of golden rays. That’s the new morning,sinner and saint, just like me. walking is a hammer swung as you take on stride at a time as sleep drags me backwards until a new thought can penetrate i have the chance to achieve more than i did yesterday if i get up now. the bed is warm when i lay there and don’t move the drafts are cold yet my feet swing outwards into the chill of the cold damp morning. Soon after the summers ray have began to warn the days there’s a shrill sound, a whistle sound as my mother leaps out of bed faster than a rat from a trap. as it goes from silence to the loud discussions of what everyone is doing for the day sounds so much louder then it actually is while everyone is expressing there opinions . In the morning rush while everyone’s starting to get on with there day. In the morning everyone has the enjoyment to start the day until the mid afternoon rolls around where everyone is tiered and lazy. As morning starts to fade in like a scene from bad a production film . The cast stomp about, slam doors and project their voices as far as their lips, then sulk because no-one replied. It would be funny if this same thing wasn’t repeated every morning at 7 am on the dot
Night
The evening of darkness seems to roll through in south Africa at , night time is that place beyond the owls and the caves. with only the starlight and waxing moon for light, the blackness was almost complete. night time twists back around again, as children of tucked into bed, gangsters walk. Darkness brings out the primal natural to the focus. and also in wintry evenings the family’s passed many wakeful hours together, none sleepy enough to turn in for the night,each on passed with uneventful enjoyment as it feels like life is coming to a stand still, until there came a heavy knocking at the door as i look towards the entry way all confused a minute of silences while everyone looks at each other to see who;s going to clump over towards the front door when i finely get myself to the door i glance through the key hole along to see a black shadow figure standing their waiting i crack the door open so the light could allow me to see who their as i notice the face and the figure of the person i open the door properly, the loud incinerating creek of the door that makes your ears ring, so i invited the familiar face in , as the door is about to close i felt i warm breeze on the back of my leg as i the closes behind me. one thing that all south Africans do at night is that they have a braai at night with all our their closest friends and family to just chill and have conversation and all that you can see is the stars in the sky and light spots on the lawn in the distance and the sounds are the same with just owls making a noise and the talking and the laughter of peoples conversations all through the night sky. the dark shadows is all you can see at the end of the yard which looks like a endless hole in the corner of your eyes.
