We all go to visit Alet, early morning Hanlie goes
chatting, later the day, Hermien goes talking, then
tea-time at ten, I rock up with a handful of poems
Alet reads avidly, making delighted comments,
feeding my soul, understanding my spirit, being
a haven for everybody who needs to talk
Never turns anyone away, her eyes lighting up in
emotional reaction, happy understanding making
it clear the light radiating from all facets
Are caught and enjoyed by an intelligent mind,
messages deeply embedded in her sweet heart,
her enthusiasm is balm for our weary spirits
Warm consideration creating a safe haven for
the heavy-laden heart…
