With You I Am On New Unknown Ground (Free Verse Sonnet) Poem by Gert Strydom

(for Daleen)

With you I am on new unknown ground,
when the sun raises red there is new hope,
I taste the spring and summer in your mouth,
do notice how my life in love with you does progress.
The dew falls softly on us when we do sleep outside,
the air is fresh and above us darkness as blue and black
and I want to bring every beautiful thing to you,
in love as a thank you and offering.
The sun radiates from your eyes and beautiful face,
there is a song of praise coming deeply from your words
and at night we walk in the star-light
as we are dumbfounded with the whole world,
while you do live in my soul, my heart and in my blood
and that this is much more than love is something that I do suspect.
