This Is The Time Poem by Gert Strydom

(for Annelize)

This is the very best time for me,
where deeply I do now know:
how you do still in your heart feel,
where in your actions more than words remain,
where I cannot avoid your goodwill,
your eyes glitter like stars that above me beckon,
shine as the set beacons of God:
the Southern-Cross does indicate the way to you.
I want to bring my whole heart to you,
write the best poems that I can,
poems that tell about true love
and you leave me wordless and amazed:
that you do feel something for me is no inspiration
and my heart rejoice when you do me call.
