Where Moments Stretch Out Between The Two Of Us (Free Verse Sonnet) Poem by Gert Strydom

(in answer to Ina Rousseau)

Where mere moments do stretch out between the two of us
like mother-of-pearl is each moment of shuddering and trembling
as if we can take each other to eternity.
When your fingers do draw soft lines over my face
I want to cover your body with soft fluttering kisses
while our hearts like the doves outside do sing songs of joy,
we are for each other much more than just relaxation and healing
where every thing does turn just around you and me.
Where the wonder so pure, holy and clean
do live in the space of only a moment
I see your eyes gleam in their depth's full beauty
which shows you more than a mere human to me,
where in my arms you do call out, shudder and tremble
and outside there is darkness and the expanding night.
