Daleen Enslinstrydom Poems

In the meadow I see them swaying in the wind
like yellow patches of sunshine
throughout the green field
and with their golden crowns bowing
...

When the red roses starts flowering
at the window of my bedroom
and the heat of the sun
lets the fragrance spread through the air
...

(a tribute to Wanda Britt)

(How do you say goodbye to someone
who was part of your soul?)

To me you were more than a friend,
...

When God did create you,
He did build in potential,
a disposition towards Him,
a search for inner peace,
...

The sand and the sea and the sun
are things that heal the soul
and with the long drive from Gauteng now behind us
we sit on a bench drinking something cold
...

From the street to parliament
everybody knows a person like this
and their knowledge about everything
is a real pain in the bud.
...

Happiness is a moment in time,
a memory to go back to in stormy times,
it’s something to pursue,
to continually seek for.
...

In grandpa’s garden everything grows
with love that overflows.

There are flowers in various assortments,
...

You came from a distant past,
out of my dreams
and you came to me
long before I did even know you
...

Where the mountain and the canopy of the sky meets
high above the horizon
in the heavens near to the sun,
where the waterfalls rush to the earth,
...
