How Do I Love You? (Cavatina) Poem by Gert Strydom

How Do I Love You? (Cavatina)



(after Elizabeth Barrett Browning)

In every day’s longing, in the sheer need
of how life is,
when feelings are totally out of sight,
in each sweet kiss,
in my childish kind of lingering faith,
you bring me bliss
and to the depths of my soul I love you
in everything that is good, noble and true.

[Reference: “How Do I Love Thee? ” by Elizabeth Barrett Browning.]
