So Very Much (English Sonnet) Poem by Gert Strydom

(for Annelize)

So very much I do long to see you again
to daily live with you in times of gladness
to experience times of sunshine and rain
to have you in all of life's fun and madness

where as my love you are closer than kin
where truly you do me day after day adore
do know me thoroughly and even my sin,
and I do want to love you as no one before

with you want to turn the world upside down
to paint it any colour that you do want it to be,
once again I want to make you my very own
hear your laughter and see you truly happy.

Here I am with my heart and soul at your feet
as you are beautiful in womanhood and sweet.
