At Liberty (English Sonnet) Poem by Gert Strydom

(for Annelize)

You do me truly from the depth of your heart know
and still in live some things do never again return:
like in a moment how your eyes did lovely glow
with an intense heat your kisses did to the heart burn

and all of these impressions of you does remain mine
where not a single moment with you I do deplore
and I do constantly remember how your eyes do shine
how on a beach long ago the ocean did in tempest roar

where against each other sheltering we stood
and with its magic the mind may pictures weave
where you are gorgeous above a great multitude
and for many years about loosing you I did grieve

but now or lives and love is totally at liberty
where true love beacons us together to be.
