Eldin Durant van der Walt Poems

The Best Poem Of Eldin Durant van der Walt

By The Cover

Under the skin of dust,
Inside the decay and rust,
Behind the fading green crust,
No desire, neither nor lust,

Attention skips the draw,
Intrigued less no more,
Maybe sad tales of war,
Even ancient rebel score,

Judged by its cover,
Never given a chance,
Not even a glance,
Forgotten!

Open your eyes!
It is doves not flies,
It is love not lies,
Open your eyes!

This book holds a key,
It guards a treasure you see,
Hate and lies won’t be,
Only love and respect for thee,

Judge a soul,
Not a cover,
Make this your goal,
Don’t judge a cover!

Take that chance,
Have that glance,
Let love be,
You’ll see!
