From The First Moment Poem by Gert Strydom

From the first moment
you were beautiful to me
and something in the first look
and the spirit and soul in your eyes
that burn like golden suns,
showed a angel
and also totally a woman.

When you came up to me
for a moment
I felt unworthy
and you were and you were modest
and even a little shy
and when I looked
in serenity at you
you touched something of my soul
as if destiny and God
had already planted you deep in my heart.
