Die Worcesteriet Wilmarie Pekeur is die landwye naaswenner in die Afrikaanse afdeling van die 2023- Avbob-gedig-kompetisie met haar roerende gedig \u201cOnder die invloed van die dood\u201d.<\/p>\n
Die wenners van die 2023-Avbob-po\u00ebsiekompetisie (een vir elk van Suid-Afrika se amptelike tale) is Woensdagaand 20 September aangekondig.<\/p>\n
Carl van der Riet, uitvoerende hoof van Avbob, het die hoofrede gelewer waarin hy po\u00ebsie beskryf het as \u2019n helende plek waar ons vertroosting vind, asook vernuwing en aanmoediging.<\/p>\n
\u201cTerwyl ons Erfenisdag op 24 September eer, vier ons Suid-Afrika se ryk en gevarieerde po\u00ebtiese tradisies. Ons is veral trots op hoe die Avbob-po\u00ebsiekompetisie bydra tot ons land se kulturele erfenis in al 11 amptelike tale en dit verryk,\u201d het hy ges\u00ea.<\/p>\n
\u201cDigters is van die begin af aangemoedig om werk in hul moedertaal in te dien. Ons is verheug om te sien 55% van alle gedigte wat vanjaar ingeskryf is, is in Suid-Afrika se volkstale geskryf,\u201d het Van der Riet gedeel.<\/p>\n
Hy het bygevoeg dat die Avbob- po\u00ebsiebiblioteek nou nagenoeg 21 000 gedigte bevat, wat elk sy skrywer \u2019n gebruiksfooi van R300 laat verdien het. <\/p>\n
Dit verteenwoordig \u2019n belegging van meer as R6,2 miljoen in gebruiksfooie, wat Suid-Afrikaanse digters ondersteun sedert die kompetisie ses jaar gelede \u2013 in 2017 \u2013 begin het.<\/p>\n
Wilmarie is visueel gestremd en het by die Pionierskool in Worcester skool\u00adgegaan. Hierna het sy administratiewe kursusse by die Hein Wagener-sentrum voltooi en \u2019n BA graad in kommunikasie deur Unisa verwerf. Tans is sy besig met haar honneursgraad in mediastudies.<\/p>\n
En dit als terwyl sy \u2019n voltydse beroep as ontvangs- en skakelbord-beampte by Orbit Motors in Worcester het.<\/p>\n
Wilmarie vertel dat sy as kind reeds van lees en skryf gehou het. Toe sy op ho\u00ebrskool was, het sy besef wanneer sy opstelle skryf, maak dit iets in haar wakker en sy wil graag vir mense stories deur middel van haar skryfwerk vertel.<\/p>\n
Wilmarie het in 2019 vir die befaamde skrywer Rachelle Greeff se jaarlange skryfskool in Wellington ingeskryf. Hier het Rachelle haar onder haar vlerk geneem en Wilmarie se ware skryftalent is so ontdek en aangemoedig.<\/p>\n
Vandag skryf Wilmarie rubrieke vir verskeie publikasies, waaronder Rapport<\/span> en Die Burger<\/span>. Haar droom is om eendag \u2019n dig- en kortverhaalbundel te publiseer asook om betrokke te raak op \u2019n uitsaaiplatform soos SAUK om \u2019n groter gehoor met haar stories te bereik.<\/p>\n Wilmarie vertel haar naaswenner-gedig in die Avbob-kompetisie is uit haar hart geskryf. \u201c<\/p>\n \n Onder die invloed van die dood<\/i>\u201d is geskryf nadat Wilmarie se broerskind skielik op 17-jarige ouderdom dood is.<\/p>\n \u201cDit was \u2019n vermoeiende tyd vir ons hele familie, en om oor die verdriet hieroor te skryf, was \u2019n manier vir my om met die dood vrede te probeer maak. <\/p>\n \u201cSkryf is gewis \u2019n middel om jou emosies uit te beeld en terselfdertyd heling daardeur te vind.\u201d<\/p>\n Haar raad aan ander mense met gestremdhede is om altyd 110% in plaas van \u201cnet 100%\u201d te gee. <\/p>\n \u201cKry \u2019n passie en wees doelgerig. Ek word nog nie betaal vir my passie nie, maar dis juis die passie wat my motiveer om aan te hou. Solank ek myself verbeter in dit waarvan ek hou, sal ek altyd aanhou.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Die Worcesteriet Wilmarie Pekeur is die landwye naaswenner in die
