When My Heart Sings (Free Verse Sonnet) Poem by Gert Strydom

When My Heart Sings (Free Verse Sonnet)



When my heart sings in passion over you
where you are constantly everywhere with me
then love is a sweet fig, a piece of my memory,
which brings everything to fruitfulness,
when against desperation it stands,
like light in days of absolute darkness,
affirm destination and destiny, which you cannot miss,
then it lets emotion jump around wildly in the heart,
where seasons flicker as if nothing is fixed,
when the weather catches all times in a day,
where I can forget all other things in its grace,
then love brings consistency to living,
it's the beauty to which we do constantly long
and you are the one who I know in all things.
