Dean du Preez Poems

Death came to take you away,
My tomorrows are no longer like my yesterdays.

I was free and now i feel trapped,
...

Surfing is amazing....
I enjoy watching the other surfers from the beach...
I enjoy watching them ride waves as im paddling out again...
Always good to see your mates in a barrel....
...

Aloha Champ you are still a star,
Your last heat against Slater will be remembered afar...

You had the final say,
...

What a band!
An amazing band!
My favorite album Blood Sugar Sex Magic
But I sing along to all their songs
...

Today, i feel as if i can conquer just about anything.
I wish all days were like today.
Sadly they are not, days like today are rare but i embrace the moment.
When i am in this moment i am free.
...

uma umama omnyama elahlekelwa ingane yakhe wenzani?
lapho umama wase-Asia elahlekelwa yingane uzizwa kangakanani
lapho umntwana omhlophe omama ehamba kwenzekani emphefumulweni wakhe
ENdiya benzani omama lapho ingane ilahlekile ingabe nabo bayanqotshwa?
...

As seasons change to make new from old,
You have been taken to be refined like the purest of gold.

Your body not needed to where you now go,
...

Mozambique, Mozambique take me back and kiss my cheek,
My homeland has become a bore, cos television dictates behind every door..I want to escape to where i am free,
where i have more time, more time for me..
...

To understand a woman is not complicated, consider a child and what makes them elated...

For inside each woman is an innocent child, its only man who percieves her as wild...
