Daleen Enslinstrydom Poems

I miss you more everyday
when my days grow longer like shadows
against the wall of life
and as the light does disappear,
...

How do I find words for perfection?
If in words I do only say
what you do mean to me
but I do fall far short.
...

In front of me you do stand
with yesterday's shadows
that lie behind the curtains
of your darkened eyes.
...

The rays greet the dew-fresh grass
as if to say: "How do you do? "
The dew sparkle and glisten
like diamonds
...

It is December month, holiday
rain filters softly all around us
as if scattered through a sieve
it permeates the ground and air.
...

When twilight falls
and shadows stretch like days without end
there is a place in the garden
where I come to rest
...

Time with you was always well spent,
I have told you many stories
we had a special kind of bond
...

Willow tree branches hang low
like platted whips from top to bottom,
mint-green leaves are everywhere to be seen
as they shimmer.
...

I wonder what happened to our relationship,
the friendship we once had;
the laughter on your mouth
and in your eyes are both gone.
...

When the worries of life sometimes bring me down
and tomorrow does not seem as if it wants to come
it's a time that I want to make a little hole into your heart
where I can move in, move into a place.
...
