To Sing About Your Sheer Beauty (English Sonnet) Poem by Gert Strydom

(for Annelize)

I wish I could only a moment of your precious time take,
look at your soulful eyes see the dimple on your cheek
where just your face does emotions in my heart awake
and sometimes I feel strong or in your presence weak

where I do not want this magic contact to be ending
where constantly you bring great joy to my heart
as our love to me is a very precious kind of thing
where your true feelings your eyes do lively impart

and it's special when our meetings do occur
I notice the constant swelling of your bosom
as every breath do again and again recur
you remind me of the loveliest blossom

and in words I cannot my feelings express
to sing about your sheer beauty and loveliness.
