Gert Strydom Poems

(for Annelize)

While daily I do try a living to make
I do claim your heart for my love's sake
...

I wait upon God to help me
to pick up the pieces of life
where I do whatever I can
to try and make a living
...

(for Annelize)

With sincere words I want to talk to you
to you soul, spirit and heart carry through,
...

On the carnations that are yellow, red and white
like sparkling diamonds hang drops of dew
and the garden draws attention as if it's new
while the flowers in it are for people a tranquil sight,
...

On the carnations that are yellow, red and white
like sparkling diamonds hang drops of dew
and the garden draws attention as if it's new
while the flowers in it are for people a tranquil sight,
...

On the carnations that are yellow, red and white
like sparkling diamonds hang drops of dew
and the garden draws attention as if it's new
while the flowers in it are for people a tranquil sight,
...

On the carnations that are yellow, red and white
like sparkling diamonds hang drops of dew
and the garden draws attention as if it's new
while the flowers in it are for people a tranquil sight,
...

When she brings something from the garden into the house
the pots are everywhere in the living-room,
it's as if birds do sing right though the house,
as if she turns the atmosphere around,
...

(for Annelize)

While our two hearts do beat you are out of reach
where we do love each other each to each
