Sonnet 1 Poem by Elbert Matt Loubser

Sonnet 1

Rating: 5.0


In watery ways
And watery days
I yearned for the sun
Too precious to prays

Ah, the sunlight
And sunlit days
Where the 'butter' flies
And true life plays

Blindly seeing
Misbelieving
Not pretentious
Yet always fleeing

Was it not for my blindness
I would never have met its gaze
